page_alloc: add movable_memmap kernel parameter

Add functions to parse movablemem_map boot option.  Since the option
could be specified more then once, all the maps will be stored in the
global variable movablemem_map.map array.

And also, we keep the array in monotonic increasing order by start_pfn.
And merge all overlapped ranges.
