Memory controller: rename to Memory Resource Controller

Rename Memory Controller to Memory Resource Controller.  Reflect the same
changes in the CONFIG definition for the Memory Resource Controller.  Group
together the config options for Resource Counters and Memory Resource
Controller.

Memory Controller
Memory Resource Controller
NOTE: The Memory Resource Controller has been generically been referred
to as the memory controller in this document. Do not confuse memory controller
used here with the memory controller that is used in hardware.

Provides a memory resource controller that manages both page cache and
RSS memory.
Note that setting this option increases fixed memory overhead
associated with each page of memory in the system by 4/8 bytes
and also increases cache misses because struct page on many 64bit

Only enable when you're ok with these trade offs and really
