Commit 50585192bc2e ("mm/damon/schemes: skip already charged targets and
regions") introduced a minor issue that causes the last region to be
skipped before it is processed.
Example:
1. Target has 2 regions: R1 (0-100 bytes) and R2 (100-200 bytes).
2. Quota is configured to process only 100 bytes per window.
3. Window 1: Processes R1 (0-100). Quota is full. charge_{target,
addr}_from is saved at (Target, 100).
4. Window 2: The loop reaches R2. Because R2 is
damon_last_region(t), the old code unconditionally returns true,
skipping R2 entirely and resetting the charge_{target,addr}_from.
Result: R2 is permanently skipped even though it has never been
processed.
Add a test to prevent this regression in the future.

- Resend since the dependent patch is merged into mm-new, that would
help us getting AI review help.

Other than a trivial style that I commented below,

Let's drop braces for single line, as suggested [1] in coding-style.

I will change this in next revision.
By the way, Sashiko reported an issue [1]: min_region_sz is not
power-of-2. While this do not cause any real issue in this test,
non-power-of-2's min_region_sz is not legal. Should min_region_sz
initial value set to power-of-2 value (e.g., PAGE_SIZE) in the next
revision?
