Before transitioning a guest_memfd folio to unshared, thereby
disallowing access by the host and allowing the hypervisor to
transition its view of the guest page as private, we need to be
sure that the host doesn't have any references to the folio.
This patch introduces a new type for guest_memfd folios, which
isn't activated in this series but is here as a placeholder and
to facilitate the code in the next patch. This will be used in
the future to register a callback that informs the guest_memfd
subsystem when the last reference is dropped, therefore knowing
that the host doesn't have any remaining references.
