The selftest started failing since commit e93d2521b27f
("x86/vdso: Split virtual clock pages into dedicated mapping")
was merged. While debugging I stumbled upon some memory usage
optimizations.

With these test now runs on a VM with only 60MiB of memory.

Changes in v3:
- Pick up review tags
- Fix naming around PR_SET_VMA_ANON_NAME helper functions
- Skip selftest if PR_SET_VMA_ANON_NAME is not supported
- Check for VM_IO instead of [vvar name prefix
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250110-virtual_address_range-tests-v2-0-262a2bf3c3d0@linutronix.de

Changes in v2:
- Drop /dev/null usage
- Avoid overcommit restrictions by dropping PROT_WRITE
- Avoid high memory usage due to PTEs
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250107-virtual_address_range-tests-v1-0-3834a2fb47fe@linutronix.de
