pageflags: introduce macros to generate page flag functions

Introduce a set of macros that generate functions to handle page flags.

A page flag function group typically starts with either

SETPAGEFLAG(<part of function name>,<part of PG_ flagname>)

to create a set of page flag operations that are atomic. Or

__SETPAGEFLAG(<part of function name>,<part of PG_ flagname)

to create a set of page flag operations that are not atomic.

Then additional operations can be added using the following macros

TESTSCFLAG Create additional atomic test-and-set and
test-and-clear functions

TESTSETFLAG Create additional test and set function
TESTCLEARFLAG Create additional test and clear function
SETPAGEFLAG Create additional atomic set function
CLEARPAGEFLAG Create additional atomic clear function
__TESTPAGEFLAG Create additional non atomic set function
__SETPAGEFLAG Create additional non atomic clear function
