malloc: Support hugepages in mremap_chunk

Add mremap_chunk support for mmap()ed chunks using hugepages by accounting for
their alignment, to prevent the mremap call failing in most cases where the
size passed is not a hugepage size multiple. It also improves robustness for
reallocating hugepages since mremap is much less likely to fail, so running
out of memory when reallocating a larger size and having to copy the old
contents after mremap fails is also less likely.

To track whether an mmap()ed chunk uses hugepages, have a flag in the lowest
bit of the mchunk_prev_size field which is set after a call to sysmalloc_mmap,
and accessed later in mremap_chunk. Create macros for getting and setting this
bit, and for mapping the bit off when accessing the field for mmap()ed chunks.
Since the alignment cannot be lower than 8 bytes, this flag cannot affect the
alignment data.

Add malloc/tst-tcfree4-malloc-check to the tests-exclude-malloc-check list as
malloc-check prevents the tcache from being used to store chunks. This test
caused failures due to a bug in mem2chunk_check to be fixed in a later patch.
