memcg: reduce memcg tree traversals for stats collection

Currently cgroup-v1's memcg_stat_show traverses the memcg tree ~17 times
to collect the stats while cgroup-v2's memory_stat_show traverses the
memcg tree thrice.  On a large machine, a couple thousand memcgs is very
normal and if the churn is high and memcgs stick around during to several
reasons, tens of thousands of nodes in memcg tree can exist.  This patch
has refactored and shared the stat collection code between cgroup-v1 and
cgroup-v2 and has reduced the tree traversal to just one.

I ran a simple benchmark which reads the root_mem_cgroup's stat file
1000 times in the presense of 2500 memcgs on cgroup-v1. The results are:

Without the patch:
$ time ./read-root-stat-1000-times

real    0m1.663s
user    0m0.000s
sys     0m1.660s

With the patch:
$ time ./read-root-stat-1000-times

real    0m0.468s
user    0m0.000s
sys     0m0.467s
