Document Linux Memory Policy

I couldn't find any memory policy documentation in the Documentation
directory, so here is my attempt to document it.

There's lots more that could be written about the internal design--including
data structures, functions, etc.  However, if you agree that this is better
that the nothing that exists now, perhaps it could be merged.  This will
provide a baseline for updates to document the many policy patches that are
currently being worked.
