userfaultfd/selftests: use memfd_create for shmem test type
This is a preparatory commit. In the future, we want to be able to setup alias mappings for area_src and area_dst in the shmem test, like we do in the hugetlb_shared test. With a VMA obtained via mmap(MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_SHARED), it isn't clear how to do this. So, mmap() with an fd, so we can create alias mappings. Use memfd_create instead of actually passing in a tmpfs path like hugetlb does, since it's more convenient / simpler to run, and works just as well. Future commits will: 1. Setup the alias mappings. 2. Extend our tests to actually take advantage of this, to test new userfaultfd behavior being introduced in this series. Also, a small fix in the area we're changing: when the hugetlb setup fails in main(), pass in the right argv[] so we actually print out the hugetlb file path.
