CAT test doesn't take shareable bits into account, i.e., the test might
be sharing cache with some devices (e.g., graphics).
Introduce get_mask_no_shareable() and use it to provision an
environment for CAT test where the allocated LLC is isolated better.
Excluding shareable_bits may create hole(s) into the cbm_mask, thus add
a new helper count_contiguous_bits() to find the longest contiguous set
of CBM bits.
create_bit_mask() is needed by an upcoming CAT test rewrite so make it
available in resctrl.h right away.
