This patch introduces the bitmap metadata blocks and adds the skeleton of the code that will be used to maintain these blocks. Each chunk's bitmap is made up of full metadata blocks. These blocks maintain basic metadata to help prevent scanning unnecssarily to update hints. Full scanning methods are used for the skeleton and will be replaced in the coming patches. A number of helper functions are added as well to do conversion of pages to blocks and manage offsets. Comments will be updated as the final version of each function is added. There exists a relationship between PAGE_SIZE, PCPU_BITMAP_BLOCK_SIZE, the region size, and unit_size. Every chunk's region (including offsets) is page aligned at the beginning to preserve alignment. The end is aligned to LCM(PAGE_SIZE, PCPU_BITMAP_BLOCK_SIZE) to ensure that the end can fit with the populated page map which is by page and every metadata block is fully accounted for. The unit_size is already page aligned, but must also be aligned with PCPU_BITMAP_BLOCK_SIZE to ensure full metadata blocks.
