Provide the current number of vmalloc shadow pages in

Maybe it makes sense to put this into /sys/kernel/debug/kasan/
(without _vmalloc) and name e.g. vmalloc_shadow_pages? In case we want
to expose more generic KASAN debugging info later.

Merging this is probably overkill, but I leave it to the discretion
of the broader community.

On v4 (no dynamic freeing), I saw the following approximate figures
on my test VM:

 - fresh boot: 720
 - after test_vmalloc: ~14000

With v5 (lazy dynamic freeing):

 - boot: ~490-500
 - running modprobe test_vmalloc pushes the figures up to sometimes
    as high as ~14000, but they drop down to ~560 after the test ends.
    I'm not sure where the extra sixty pages are from, but running the
    test repeately doesn't cause the number to keep growing, so I don't
    think we're leaking.
 - with vmap_stack, spawning tasks pushes the figure up to ~4200, then
    some clearing kicks in and drops it down to previous levels again.
