mm: introduce BPF kfuncs to deal with memcg pointers

To effectively operate with memory cgroups in BPF there is a need
to convert css pointers to memcg pointers. A simple container_of
cast which is used in the kernel code can't be used in BPF because
from the verifier's point of view that's a out-of-bounds memory access.

Introduce helper get/put kfuncs which can be used to get
a refcounted memcg pointer from the css pointer:
  - bpf_get_mem_cgroup,
  - bpf_put_mem_cgroup.

bpf_get_mem_cgroup() can take both memcg's css and the corresponding
cgroup's "self" css. It allows it to be used with the existing cgroup
iterator which iterates over cgroup tree, not memcg tree.
