mm: add VM counters for transparent hugepages

I found it difficult to make sense of transparent huge pages without
having any counters for its actions.  Add some counters to vmstat for
allocation of transparent hugepages and fallback to smaller pages.

Optional patch, but useful for development and understanding the system.

Contains improvements from Andrea Arcangeli and Johannes Weiner
