mm/util: introduce snapshot_page()
This commit refactors __dump_page() into snapshot_page(). snapshot_page() tries to take a faithful snapshot of a page and its folio representation. The snapshot is returned in the struct page_snapshot parameter along with additional flags that are best retrieved at snapshot creation time to reduce race windows. This function is intended to be used by callers that need a stable representation of a struct page and struct folio so that pointers or page information doesn't change while working on a page. The idea and original implementation of snapshot_page() comes from Matthew Wilcox with suggestions for improvements from David Hildenbrand. All bugs and misconceptions are mine.
