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.
