[CRIU] [PATCH] crit: Add madvise flags decoding

Closes: checkpoint-restore/criu#342

Only added support for the subset of advises that CRIU encodes in its
mm images, as defined in criu/proc_parse.c, macro _vmflag_match().

As for the hardcoded advise constants, I crosschecked a number of
mman.h headers available on the Internet, including criu's.

How did I test this:
I ran the Simple Loop demo (https://criu.org/Simple_loop), before
and after the patch. In the mm checkpoint file for the first process,
there's a line for one of the VMAs that, with crit show, reads
"madv": "0x10000"
After applying the patch, the line reads
"madv": "MADV_DONTDUMP"

I guess this happens because of criu/mem.c#L1094, which is the only
use of advises I have seen in the codebase aside from logging and tests.

I also ensured that I'm not breaking any ZDTM tests. Would that mean
that the CRIT tools could use some testing?
