mm: compaction: add trace events for memory compaction activity
In preparation for a patches promoting the use of memory compaction over lumpy reclaim, this patch adds trace points for memory compaction activity. Using them, we can monitor the scanning activity of the migration and free page scanners as well as the number and success rates of pages passed to page migration.
