arm64, mm: move generic mmap layout functions to mm

arm64 handles top-down mmap layout in a way that can be easily reused by
other architectures, so make it available in mm.  It then introduces a new
config ARCH_WANT_DEFAULT_TOPDOWN_MMAP_LAYOUT that can be set by other
architectures to benefit from those functions.  Note that this new config
depends on MMU being enabled, if selected without MMU support, a warning
will be thrown.
