Introduce 'options' argument to heap_page_prune()

Currently there is only one option, HEAP_PAGE_PRUNE_MARK_UNUSED_NOW
which replaces the old boolean argument, but upcoming patches will
introduce at least one more. Having a lot of boolean arguments makes
it hard to see at the call sites what the arguments mean, so prefer a
bitmask of options with human-readable names.
