[PATCH 2/2 makedumpfile] Fix wrong exclusion of Slab pages on Linux 6.10-rc1 and later

* Required for kernel 6.10
Kernel commit 46df8e73a4a3 ("mm: free up PG_slab") moved the PG_slab
flag from page.flags into page._mapcount (slab.__page_type), and
introduced NUMBER(PAGE_SLAB_MAPCOUNT_VALUE) entry into vmcoreinfo.
Without the patch, "makedumpfile -d 8" option wrongly excludes Slab
pages and crash cannot open the dumpfile with an error like this:
$ crash --kaslr auto vmlinux dumpfile
...
please wait... (gathering task table data)
crash: page excluded: kernel virtual address: ffff909980440270 type: "xa_node.slots[off]"
