    separate tree_item at the node, for several reasons it becomes awkward to
    keep rmap_items in the stable tree without a separate stable_node: lack of
    space in the nicely-sized rmap_item, the need for an anchor as rmap_items
    are removed, the need for a node even when temporarily no rmap_items are
    attached to it.
    
    So declare struct stable_node (rb_node to place it in the tree and
    hlist_head for the rmap_items hanging off it), and convert stable tree
    handling to use it: without yet taking advantage of it.  Note how one
    stable_tree_insert() of a node now has _two_ stable_tree_append()s of the
    two rmap_items being merged.
