memory_hotplug: introduce memhp_default_state= command line parameter

CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_DEFAULT_ONLINE specifies the default value for the
memory hotplug onlining policy.  Add a command line parameter to make it
possible to override the default.  It may come handy for debug and
testing purposes.
