userfaultfd: hugetlbfs: add userfaultfd_hugetlb test

Test userfaultfd hugetlb functionality by using the existing testing
method (in userfaultfd.c).  Instead of an anonymous memeory, a hugetlbfs
file is mmap'ed private.  In this way fallocate hole punch can be used
to release pages.  This is because madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) is not
supported for huge pages.

Use the same file, but create wrappers for allocating ranges and
releasing pages.  Compile userfaultfd.c with HUGETLB_TEST defined to
produce an executable to test userfaultfd hugetlb functionality.
