KVM: selftests: Add a helper to get system configured THP page size

Browse source 
If we want to have some tests about transparent hugepages, the system
configured THP hugepage size should better be known by the tests, which
can be used for kinds of alignment or guest memory accessing of vcpus...
So it makes sense to add a helper to get the transparent hugepage size.

With VM_MEM_SRC_ANONYMOUS_THP specified in vm_userspace_mem_region_add(),
we now stat /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage to check whether THP is
configured in the host kernel before madvise(). Based on this, we can also
read file /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/hpage_pmd_size to get THP
hugepage size.
