shield Recommended update for kexec-tools

SUSE-SLE-Module-Basesystem-15-SP2-2020-3923

This update for kexec-tools fixes the following issues: - Xen 4.7 introduced _soft-reset_ for HVM domUs. (bsc#1176606, bsc#1174508) This host feature removes the requirement to _un-ballon_ the `domU` prior `kexec`. With Xen 4.13 _cpuid faulting_ became the default, which affects the approach used before to detect the _domU_ type. As a result, invoking kexec in _dom0_ failed.
