x86/mm: implement HAVE_ARCH_UNMAPPED_AREA_VMFLAGS
When memory is being placed, mmap() will take care to respect the guard gaps of certain types of memory (VM_SHADOWSTACK, VM_GROWSUP and VM_GROWSDOWN). In order to ensure guard gaps between mappings, mmap() needs to consider two things: 1. That the new mapping isn't placed in an any existing mappings guard gaps. 2. That the new mapping isn't placed such that any existing mappings are not in *its* guard gaps. The longstanding behavior of mmap() is to ensure 1, but not take any care around 2. So for example, if there is a PAGE_SIZE free area, and a mmap() with a PAGE_SIZE size, and a type that has a guard gap is being placed, mmap() may place the shadow stack in the PAGE_SIZE free area. Then the mapping that is supposed to have a guard gap will not have a gap to the adjacent VMA. Add x86 arch implementations of arch_get_unmapped_area_vmflags/_topdown() so future changes can allow the guard gap of type of vma being placed to be taken into account. This will be used for shadow stack memory.
