fs/proc/page: remove per-page mapcount dependency for /proc/kpagecount (CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT)

Let's implement an alternative when per-page mapcounts in large folios are
no longer maintained -- soon with CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT.

For large folios, we'll return the per-page average mapcount within the
folio, whereby we round to the closest integer when calculating the
average: however, we'll always return at least 1 if the folio is mapped.

So assuming a folio with 512 pages, the average would be:
* 0 if not pages are mapped
* 1 if there are 1 .. 767 per-page mappings
* 2 if there are 767 .. 1279 per-page mappings
...

For hugetlb folios and for large folios that are fully mapped into all
address spaces, there is no change.

We'll make use of this helper in other context next.

As an alternative, we could simply return 0 for non-hugetlb large folios,
or disable this legacy interface with CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT.

But the information exposed by this interface can still be valuable, and
frequently we deal with fully-mapped large folios where the average
corresponds to the actual page mapcount.  So we'll leave it like this for
now and document the new behavior.

Note: this interface is likely not very relevant for performance.  If ever
required, we could try doing a rather expensive rmap walk to collect
precisely how often this folio page is mapped.
