mm: zcache: add core files

zcache is a backend for cleancache that takes file pages that are in the
process of being reclaimed and attempts to compress them and store them
in a RAM-based memory pool. This can result in a significant I/O reduction
if system is full with file pages and, in the case where decompressing
from RAM is faster than reading from the disk, can also improve workload
performance.
