Previously, it used a hand-rolled round-robin iterator. This meant that
the minskip logic in r338507 didn't apply to UMA allocations, and also
meant that we would call vm_wait() for individual domains rather than
permitting an allocation from any domain with sufficient free pages.

Before this change we had two flavours of vm_domainset iterators: "page"
and "malloc". The latter was only used for kmem_*() and hard-coded its
behaviour based on kernel_object's policy. Moreover, its use contained
a race similar to that fixed by r338755 since the kernel_object's
iterator was being run without the object lock.
In some cases it is useful to be able to explicitly specify a policy
(domainset) or policy+iterator (domainset_ref) when performing memory
allocations. To that end, refactor the vm_dominset_* KPI to permit
this, and get rid of the "malloc" domainset_iter KPI in the process.

This provides a chicken switch for anyone negatively impacted by
enabling NUMA in the amd64 GENERIC kernel configuration. With
NUMA disabled at boot-time, information about the NUMA topology
is not exposed to the rest of the kernel, and all of physical
memory is viewed as coming from a single domain.
This method still has some performance overhead relative to disabling
NUMA support at compile time.

On NUMA systems, we would not swap in processes unless all domains
had some free pages. This is too conservative in general. Instead,
permit swapins so long as at least one domain has free pages, and add
a kernel stack NUMA policy which ensures that we will try to allocate
kernel stack pages from any domain.

The AMD Threadripper 2990WX is basically a slightly crippled Epyc.
Rather than having 4 memory controllers, one per NUMA domain, it has
only 2 memory controllers enabled. This means that only 2 of the
4 NUMA domains can be populated with physical memory, and the
others are empty.
Add support to FreeBSD for empty NUMA domains by:
- creating empty memory domains when parsing the SRAT table,
rather than failing to parse the table
- not running the pageout deamon threads in empty domains
- adding defensive code to UMA to avoid allocating from empty domains
- adding defensive code to cpuset to avoid binding to an empty domain

The current cache logic checks the total number of stacks in the kernel,
which even on small boxes significantly exceeds the 128 limit (e.g. an
8-way box with zfs has almost 800 stacks allocated).
Stacks are cached earlier for each main thread.
As a result the code is rarely executed, but when it is then (on boxes like
the above) it always fails. Since there are no provisions made for NUMA and
release time is approaching, just do a quick check to avoid acquiring the
lock.

Per-page queue state is updated non-atomically, with either the page
lock or the page queue lock held. When vm_page_dequeue() is called
without the page lock, in rare cases a different thread may be
concurrently dequeuing the page with the pagequeue lock held. Because
of the non-atomic update, vm_page_dequeue() might return before queue
state is completely updated, which can lead to race conditions.
Restrict the vm_page_dequeue() interface so that it must be called
either with the page lock held or on a free page, and busy wait when
a different thread is concurrently updating queue state, which must
happen in a critical section.
While here, do some related cleanup: inline vm_page_dequeue_locked()

vm_page_requeue_locked(). Replace the volatile qualifier for "queue"
