mm: introduce a new page type for page pool in page type

Currently, the condition 'page->pp_magic == PP_SIGNATURE' is used to
determine if a page belongs to a page pool.  However, with the planned
removal of @pp_magic, we should instead leverage the page_type in struct
page, such as PGTY_netpp, for this purpose.

Introduce and use the page type APIs e.g.  PageNetpp(), __SetPageNetpp(),
and __ClearPageNetpp() instead, and remove the existing APIs accessing
@pp_magic e.g.  page_pool_page_is_pp(), netmem_or_pp_magic(), and
netmem_clear_pp_magic().

Plus, add @page_type to struct net_iov at the same offset as struct page
so as to use the page_type APIs for struct net_iov as well.  While at it,
reorder @type and @owner in struct net_iov to avoid a hole and increasing
the struct size.

This work was inspired by the following link:

  https://lore.kernel.org/all/582f41c0-2742-4400-9c81-0d46bf4e8314@gmail.com/

While at it, move the sanity check for page pool to on the free path.

[byungchul@sk.com: gate the sanity check, per Johannes]
