mm/sl*b: Differentiate struct slab fields by sl*b implementations

With a struct slab definition separate from struct page, we can go
further and define only fields that the chosen sl*b implementation uses.
This means everything between __page_flags and __page_refcount
placeholders now depends on the chosen CONFIG_SL*B. Some fields exist in
all implementations (slab_list) but can be part of a union in some, so
it's simpler to repeat them than complicate the definition with ifdefs
even more.

The patch doesn't change physical offsets of the fields, although it
could be done later - for example it's now clear that tighter packing in
SLOB could be possible.

This should also prevent accidental use of fields that don't exist in
given implementation. Before this patch virt_to_cache() and
cache_from_obj() were visible for SLOB (albeit not used), although they
rely on the slab_cache field that isn't set by SLOB. With this patch
it's now a compile error, so these functions are now hidden behind
an #ifndef CONFIG_SLOB.
