shmem: export shmem_get_folio

Export shmem_get_folio as a slightly lower-level variant of
shmem_read_folio_gfp.  This will be useful for XFS xfile use cases
that want to pass SGP_NOALLOC or get a locked page, which the thin
shmem_read_folio_gfp wrapper can't provide.

+ * shmem_get_folio - find, and lock a shmem folio.
+ * @inode:	inode to search
+ * @index:	the page index.
+ * @foliop:	pointer to the folio if found
+ * @sgp:	SGP_* flags to control behavior
+ *
+ * Looks up the page cache entry at @inode & @index.  If a folio is
+ * present, it is returned locked with an increased refcount.
+ *
+ * When no folio is found, the behavior depends on @sgp:
+ *  - for SGP_READ, *foliop is %NULL and 0 is returned
+ *  - for SGP_NOALLOC, *foliop is %NULL and -ENOENT is returned
+ *  - for all other flags a new folio is allocated, inserted into the
+ *    page cache and returned locked in @foliop.
+ *
+ * Context: May sleep.
+ * Return: 0 if successful, else a negative error code.
