xen: tmem: enable Xen tmem shim to be built/loaded as a module

Allow Xen tmem shim to be built/loaded as a module.  Xen self-ballooning
and frontswap-selfshrinking are now also "lazily" initialized when the Xen
tmem shim is loaded as a module, unless explicitly disabled by module
parameters.

Note runtime dependency disallows loading if cleancache/frontswap lazy
initialization patches are not present.

If built-in (not built as a module), the original mechanism of enabling via
a kernel boot parameter is retained, but this should be considered deprecated.

Note that module unload is explicitly not yet supported.
