random: move randomize_page() into mm where it belongs

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1981649
commit 5ad7dd882e45d7fe432c32e896e2aaa0b21746ea upstream.

randomize_page is an mm function. It is documented like one. It contains
the history of one. It has the naming convention of one. It looks
just like another very similar function in mm, randomize_stack_top().
And it has always been maintained and updated by mm people. There is no
need for it to be in random.c. In the "which shape does not look like
the other ones" test, pointing to randomize_page() is correct.

So move randomize_page() into mm/util.c, right next to the similar
randomize_stack_top() function.

This commit contains no actual code changes.
