vm_phys: improve robustness of fictitious ranges

With the current implementation of managed fictitious ranges when
also using VM_PHYSSEG_DENSE, a user could try to register a
fictitious range that starts inside of vm_page_array, but then
overrruns it (because the end of the fictitious range is greater than
vm_page_array_size + first_page). This would result in PHYS_TO_VM_PAGE
returning unallocated pages from past the end of vm_page_array. The
same could happen if a user tried to register a segment that starts
outside of vm_page_array but ends inside of it.

In order to fix this, allow vm_phys_fictitious_{reg/unreg}_range to
use a set of pages from vm_page_array, and allocate the rest.
