freezer: unexport refrigerator() and update try_to_freeze() slightly
There is no reason to export two functions for entering the
refrigerator. Calling refrigerator() instead of try_to_freeze()
doesn't save anything noticeable or removes any race condition.
* Rename refrigerator() to __refrigerator() and make it return bool
indicating whether it scheduled out for freezing.
* Update try_to_freeze() to return bool and relay the return value of
__refrigerator() if freezing().
* Convert all refrigerator() users to try_to_freeze().
* Update documentation accordingly.
* While at it, add might_sleep() to try_to_freeze().
