mm/pagemap: add PAGE_IS_ACCESSED for RWP tracking

PAGEMAP_SCAN already reports PAGE_IS_WRITTEN from the inverted uffd PTE
bit, targeting the UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT workflow.  UFFDIO_RWPROTECT reuses
the same PTE bit as a marker for read-write protection, but "has been
written" and "has been accessed" are distinct semantic signals — they
happen to share one PTE bit today only because the two implementations
share infrastructure.

Give RWP its own pagemap category so the UAPI does not conflate them:

  PAGE_IS_WRITTEN   reported on VM_UFFD_WP VMAs,  !pte_uffd(pte)
  PAGE_IS_ACCESSED  reported on VM_UFFD_RWP VMAs, !pte_uffd(pte)

Both still read the same PTE bit today, but each is scoped to the VMA
whose registered mode makes the bit meaningful.  If a future
implementation moves RWP to a separate PTE bit, only PAGE_IS_ACCESSED
switches over.

This is a UAPI narrowing.  Outside VM_UFFD_WP VMAs the uffd bit is always
clear, so PAGEMAP_SCAN used to flag PAGE_IS_WRITTEN on every present PTE
there — a meaningless duplicate of PAGE_IS_PRESENT.  Now PAGE_IS_WRITTEN
fires only inside VM_UFFD_WP VMAs.

pagemap_hugetlb_category() now takes the vma like its PTE/PMD peers.
