mm: add PTE_MARKER_GUARD PTE marker
Add a new PTE marker that results in any access causing the accessing process to segfault. This is preferable to PTE_MARKER_POISONED, which results in the same handling as hardware poisoned memory, and is thus undesirable for cases where we simply wish to 'soft' poison a range. This is in preparation for implementing the ability to specify guard pages at the page table level, i.e. ranges that, when accessed, should cause process termination. Additionally, rename zap_drop_file_uffd_wp() to zap_drop_markers() - the function checks the ZAP_FLAG_DROP_MARKER flag so naming it for this single purpose was simply incorrect. We then reuse the same logic to determine whether a zap should clear a guard entry - this should only be performed on teardown and never on MADV_DONTNEED or MADV_FREE. We additionally add a WARN_ON_ONCE() in hugetlb logic should a guard marker be encountered there, as we explicitly do not support this operation and this should not occur.
