vma_assert_write_locked() and vma_assert_attached() are useful for their
own purposes, however VMA code absolutely does allow the modification of
non-write locked VMAs if they are at that point detached (i.e. unreachable
from anywhere).

It's therefore useful to be able to assert that a VMA is either
detached (modification doesn't matter) or write locked (you're explicitly
locked for modification).

Therefore introduce vma_assert_can_modify() for this purpose.

While we're here, make vma_is_attached() available generally - if
!CONFIG_PER_VMA_LOCK, then there's no sense in which a VMA is
detached (vma_mark_detached() is a noop), so have this default to true in
this case.

Also update VMA userland tests to reflect this change, correcting the
previously open-coded vma_assert_[attached,detached]() there.
