tools/lib/mm: add shared file helpers
Move read_file(), write_file(), read_num(), write_num() and
write_num_ignore_einval() out of tools/testing/selftests/mm/vm_util.c into
a new shared helper under tools/lib/mm/.
These helpers are used by mm selftests today and will also be needed by
shared hugepage helpers in subsequent patches. Move them to a generic
location so they can be reused outside selftests as well.
Keep the helpers exposed to mm selftests through vm_util.h by including
the new shared header there, and link the new helper into the selftests/mm
build.
Update the explicit x86 protection_keys 32-bit and 64-bit build rules to
preserve prerequisite paths, now that file_utils.c is built from
tools/lib/mm.
Add tools/lib/mm/ to the MEMORY MANAGEMENT - MISC entry in MAINTAINERS.
