From: Zoltán Böszörményi <zbos...@gmail.com>

When using dnf to install new kernel versions and installonly_limit
is reached, dnf automatically removes the oldest kernel version.

However, the /boot/bzImage symlink (or whatever image type is used)
is removed unconditionally.

Allow using the alternative symlink machinery so the highest
kernel version takes precedence and the symlink stays in place.
