fix(lvmthinpool-monitor): activate lvm thin pool before extend its size

The state of lvm thin pool may change into inactived state when kdump into
2nd kernel. As a result, lvextend will fail to extend its size. For example:

In 1st kernel:

  $ lvs
  LV       VG         Attr       LSize   Pool     Origin Data%  Meta%
  vol      vg00       Vwi-a-tz-- 300.00m thinpool        70.54
  thinpool vg00       twi-aotz-- 236.00m                 89.67  12.50
  ...

In 2nd kernel:

  LV       VG         Attr       LSize   Pool     Origin Data%  Meta%
  vol      vg00       Vwi-aotz-- 300.00m thinpool        70.54
  thinpool vg00       twi---tz-- 236.00m                 89.67  12.50
  ...

And the lvextend failing log:
[  8.483878] start-thinpool-monitor[590]: lvextend using policy requires the thin pool to be active.

In this patch, we will first activate lvm thin pool before calling lvextend
during kdump.
