selftests/mm: vm_util: add helpers to set and restore shm limits

hugetlb-shm and thuge-gen tests require that limits defined by
/proc/sys/kernel/{shmmax,shmall} should be higher than certain values.

Add helpers that allow setting these limits and restoring their settings
on a test exit.

They will be used later in hugetlb-shm and thuge-gen.
