Subject: [RFC PATCH 01/11] mm/damon/core: introduce [in]active memory ratio damos quota goal metric

DAMOS_LRU_[DE]PRIO are DAMOS actions for making balance of active and
inactive memory size.  There is no appripriate DAMOS quota auto-tuning
target metric for the use case.  Add two new DAMOS quota goal metrics
for the purpose, namely DAMOS_QUOTA_[IN]ACTIVE_MEM_BP.  Those weill
represent the ratio of [in]active memory to total (inactive + active)
memory.  Hence, users will be able to ask DAMON to, for example, "find
hot and cold memory, and move pages of those to active and inactive LRU
lists, adjusting the hot/cold thresholds aiming 50:50 active:inactive
memory ratio."
