samples: introduce new samples subdir for cgroup

Patch series "samples: introduce cgroup events listeners", v3.

To begin with, this patch series relocates the cgroup example code to the
samples/cgroup directory, which is the appropriate location for such code
snippets.

Furthermore, a new memcg events listener is introduced.  This listener is
a simple yet effective tool for monitoring memory events and managing
counter changes during runtime.

Additionally, as per Andrew Morton's suggestion, a helpful reminder
comment is included in the memcontrol implementation.  This comment serves
to ensure that the samples code is updated whenever new events are added.


This patch (of 3):

Move the cgroup_event_listener for cgroup v1 to the samples directory. 
This suggestion was proposed by Andrew Morton during the discussion [1].
