arm64: mm: implement the architecture-specific clear_flush_young_ptes()

Implement the Arm64 architecture-specific clear_flush_young_ptes() to
enable batched checking of young flags and TLB flushing, improving
performance during large folio reclamation.

Performance testing:
Allocate 10G clean file-backed folios by mmap() in a memory cgroup, and
try to reclaim 8G file-backed folios via the memory.reclaim interface.  I
can observe 33% performance improvement on my Arm64 32-core server (and
10%+ improvement on my X86 machine).  Meanwhile, the hotspot
folio_check_references() dropped from approximately 35% to around 5%.
