[PATCH RFC net-next 1/2] netconsole: extract message fragmentation into write_msg_target()

[Breno Leitao <leitao@debian.org>]

Refactor the message fragmentation logic in write_msg() by extracting it
into a separate write_msg_target() helper function. This makes the code
more maintainable and prepares for future reuse in nbcon support for
non-extended consoles.

The helper function takes a target, message, and length, then handles
splitting the message into MAX_PRINT_CHUNK-sized fragments for sending
via send_udp().

No functional change intended.
