Some folio types, such as hugetlb, handle freeing their own
folios. Moreover, guest_memfd will require being notified once a
folio's reference count reaches 0 to facilitate shared to private
folio conversion, without the folio actually being freed at that
point.

As a first step towards that, this patch consolidates freeing
folios that have a type. The first user is hugetlb folios. Later
in this patch series, guest_memfd will become the second user of
this.
