1. core: set dumpable flag after setuid …

   When ceph-* drops drops privileges via setuid, core dumps are no longer
   generated because its DUMPABLE flag is cleared. We have to manually
   turn that back on.
   
   From prctl(2):
   
         Normally, this flag is set to 1.  However, it is reset to the current value contained in the file /proc/sys/fs/suid_dumpable (which by default has the value 0), in the fol‐
         lowing circumstances:
   
         *  The process's effective user or group ID is changed.
   
         *  The process's filesystem user or group ID is changed (see credentials(7)).
   
         *  The process executes (execve(2)) a set-user-ID or set-group-ID program, or a program that has capabilities (see capabilities(7)).
