arm64 pmap: Add ATTR_CONTIGUOUS support [Part 1]

The ATTR_CONTIGUOUS bit within an L3 page table entry designates that
L3 page as being part of an aligned, physically contiguous collection
of L3 pages.  For example, 16 aligned, physically contiguous 4 KB pages
can form a 64 KB superpage, occupying a single TLB entry.  While this
change only creates ATTR_CONTIGUOUS mappings in a few places,
specifically, the direct map and pmap_kenter{,_device}(), it adds all
of the necessary code for handling them once they exist, including
demotion, protection, and removal.  Consequently, new ATTR_CONTIGUOUS
usage can be added (and tested) incrementally.

Modify the implementation of sysctl vm.pmap.kernel_maps so that it
correctly reports the number of ATTR_CONTIGUOUS mappings on machines
configured to use a 16 KB base page size, where an ATTR_CONTIGUOUS
mapping consists of 128 base pages.

Additionally, this change adds support for creating L2 superpage
mappings to pmap_kenter{,_device}().
