mm: shmem: allow freezing inode mapping

To prepare a shmem inode for live update, its index -> folio mappings must
be serialized.  Once the mappings are serialized, they cannot change since
it would cause the serialized data to become inconsistent.  This can be
done by pinning the folios to avoid migration, and by making sure no
folios can be added to or removed from the inode.

While mechanisms to pin folios already exist, the only way to stop folios
being added or removed are the grow and shrink file seals.  But file seals
come with their own semantics, one of which is that they can't be removed.
This doesn't work with liveupdate since it can be cancelled or error out,
which would need the seals to be removed and the file's normal
functionality to be restored.

Introduce SHMEM_F_MAPPING_FROZEN to indicate this instead.  It is internal
to shmem and is not directly exposed to userspace.  It functions similar
to F_SEAL_GROW | F_SEAL_SHRINK, but additionally disallows hole punching,
and can be removed.
