Add make targets for linux kernel

Firecracker-containerd requires a linux kerenl which is provided
precompiled by default. For most use-cases, this is acceptable however
it prevents us from enabling additional features (e.g. FUSE for remote
snapshotters) and from updating kernel versions in a timely manner.

This change adds optional `make kernel` and `make install-kernel`
targets which compile a 4.14 kernel by default with FUSE enabled. 5.10
can be compiled instead with `KERNEL_VERSION=5.10 make install-kernel`.
The `install-kernel` target overwrites any previously installed kernel
(either the default pre-built or a previous `make install-kernel`)
