I had considered a "regs" command in the past, but given that they
are not always available in the various dumpfiles, and if implemented
should be done for all architectures, and quite frankly they're often
not that interesting because in, say ELF core dumps, they're typically
redundantly displayed in the backtrace exception frame.

Since this is KVM-specific and x86/x86_64-specific, for now I will
fold your patch into "help -n", which dumps dumpfile-specific data.
We can revisit making it a new command if it can be made more 
generally used.  

Thanks,
  Dave
