mm/slab: expand CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED to include SLAB

Patch series "mm: Expand CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED to include SLAB"

In reviewing Vlastimil Babka's latest slub debug series, I realized[1]
that several checks under CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED weren't being
applied to SLAB.  Fix this by expanding the Kconfig coverage, and adding a
simple double-free test for SLAB.

This patch (of 2):

Include SLAB caches when performing kmem_cache pointer verification.  A
defense against such corruption[1] should be applied to all the
allocators.  With this added, the "SLAB_FREE_CROSS" and "SLAB_FREE_PAGE"
LKDTM tests now pass on SLAB:

  lkdtm: Performing direct entry SLAB_FREE_CROSS
  lkdtm: Attempting cross-cache slab free ...
  ------------[ cut here ]------------
  cache_from_obj: Wrong slab cache. lkdtm-heap-b but object is from lkdtm-heap-a
  WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 2195 at mm/slab.h:530 kmem_cache_free+0x8d/0x1d0
  ...
  lkdtm: Performing direct entry SLAB_FREE_PAGE
  lkdtm: Attempting non-Slab slab free ...
  ------------[ cut here ]------------
  virt_to_cache: Object is not a Slab page!
  WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 2202 at mm/slab.h:489 kmem_cache_free+0x196/0x1d0

Additionally clean up neighboring Kconfig entries for clarity,
readability, and redundant option removal.
