Add a scan interface which allows to trigger scanning of a particular shrinker and specify memcg and numa node. It's useful for testing, debugging and profiling of a specific scan_objects() callback. Unlike alternatives (creating a real memory pressure and dropping caches via /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches) this interface allows to interact with only one shrinker at once. Also, if a shrinker is misreporting the number of objects (as some do), it doesn't affect scanning.
