module: prepare to handle ROX allocations for text

In order to support ROX allocations for module text, it is necessary to
handle modifications to the code, such as relocations and alternatives
patching, without write access to that memory.

One option is to use text patching, but this would make module loading
extremely slow and will expose executable code that is not finally formed.

A better way is to have memory allocated with ROX permissions contain
invalid instructions and keep a writable, but not executable copy of the
module text. The relocations and alternative patches would be done on the
writable copy using the addresses of the ROX memory. Once the module is
completely ready, the updated text will be copied to ROX memory using text
patching in one go and the writable copy will be freed.

Add support for that to module initialization code and provide necessary
interfaces in execmem.

module: Refine kmemleak scanned areas

commit ac3b43283923 ("module: replace module_layout with module_memory")
introduced a set of memory regions for the module layout sharing the
same attributes. However, it didn't update the kmemleak scanned areas
which intended to limit kmemleak scan to sections containing writable
data. This means sections such as .text and .rodata are scanned by
kmemleak.

Refine the scanned areas for modules by limiting it to MOD_TEXT and
MOD_INIT_TEXT mod_mem regions.
