[PATCH v5 19/23] drm/xe/vm: Add helper to check for default VMA memory attributes

Introduce a new helper function `xe_vma_has_default_mem_attrs()` to
determine whether a VMA's memory attributes are set to their default
values. This includes checks for atomic access, PAT index, and preferred
location.

Also, add a new field `default_pat_index` to `struct xe_vma_mem_attr`
to track the initial PAT index set during the first bind. This helps
distinguish between default and user-modified pat index, such as those
changed via madvise.
