[PATCH net-next 7/9] net: netconsole: extract release appending into separate function

[Breno Leitao]

Refactor the code by extracting the logic for appending the
release into the buffer into a separate function.

The goal is to reduce the size of send_msg_fragmented() and improve
code readability.
