Problem Description
======================
crash should run-time depends on binutils.
When execute crash command on target, if binutils is not installed, crash will fail with bellow error.
strings is a link to ***-wrswrap-linux-gnu-strings, and ***-wrswrap-linux-gnu-strings is installed by binutils.

sh: /usr/bin/strings: No such file or directory
WARNING: kernels compiled by different gcc versions:
  fsl-p50xx-vmlinux-symbols-WR5.0.1.0_standard: (unknown)
  vmcore kernel: 4.6.3

WARNING: kernel version inconsistency between vmlinux and dumpfile

lib64-crash: incompatible arguments:
   fsl-p50xx-vmlinux-symbols-WR5.0.1.0_standard is not SMP -- vmcore is SMP


Expected Behavior
======================
when crash is installed into rootfs, binutils also should be installed.

Observed Behavior

Steps to Reproduce

reproduce on fsl-p50xx:
1.build system rootfs and kernel
configure --enable-board=fsl-p50xx --enable-kernel=standard --enable-rootfs=glibc_std --with-template=feature/kexec --enable-parallel-pkgbuilds=8 --enable-jobs=8
make all
2.boot up target with system rootfs and kernel,
  Must boot up target with crashkernel=256M@64M
3.build caprute kernel in another project
configure --enable-board=fsl-p50xx --enable-kernel=standard --enable-rootfs=glibc_std --with-template=feature/kdump --enable-parallel-pkgbuilds=8 --enable-jobs=8
make all
4.copy capture kernel to target
scp fsl-p50xx-vmlinux-symbols-WR5.0.1.0_standard root@<target ip>:/root/
5.load capture
kexec -p capture_kernel/fsl-p50xx-vmlinux-symbols-WR5.0.1.0_standard --append="root=/dev/sdb1 rw ip=128.224.178.27:128.224.165.20:128.224.178.1:255.255.254.0::eth1:off console=ttyS0,115200"
6.triger a crash
echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger
7.After system boot up successfully, use crash to analyze vmcore
crash-lib64 /boot/vmlinux-3.4.34-WR5.0.1.0_standard /proc/vmcore
