Add collapse_possible_orders() to generalize THP order eligibility. The
function determines which THP orders are permitted based on collapse
context (khugepaged vs madv_collapse). We also add collapse_possible()
as a thin wrapper around collapse_possible_orders() that returns a bool
rather than the whole bitmap.

This consolidates collapse configuration logic and provides a clean
interface for future mTHP collapse support where the orders may be
different.
