When the shrinker encounter an existing folio in swap cache, it means
we are shrinking into the warmer region. We should terminate shrinking
if we're in the dynamic shrinker context.

This patch add LRU_STOP to support this, to avoid overshrinking.

nit: Should we add "May drop the lock internally, but has to return
locked" like LRU_RETRY and LRU_REMOVED_RETRY?
