oom: enable oom tasklist dump by default
The oom killer tasklist dump, enabled with the oom_dump_tasks sysctl, is
very helpful information in diagnosing why a user's task has been killed.
It emits useful information such as each eligible thread's memory usage
that can determine why the system is oom, so it should be enabled by
default.
