Migrate to use process_madvise syscall instead of procfs interface for memory compaction
Currently the system uses procfs and we are migrating to use a syscall called process_madvise
which makes the code upstreamable and will allow for making compaction widely available for multiple
android devices.
It also opens room for future developments that involve a finer grain VMA compressions
than the current procfs allows.
Test: Ran the system without crashes and verified am_compact was effectively showing compressed memory (free zram reduced) when compressing.
Bug: 162993824
Test: Manual, verified that zram was being increased over time after compactions happened
