coredump: treat RLIMIT_CORE below page size as disabling coredumps (#3932)

The kernel treats values below a certain threshold (minfmt->min_coredump
which is initialized do ELF_EXEC_PAGESIZE, which varies between architectures,
but is usually the same as PAGE_SIZE) as disabling coredumps [1].
Any core image below ELF_EXEC_PAGESIZE will yield an invalid backtrace anyway [2],
so follow the kernel and not try to parse or store such images.
