mm: memcg: fix swapcached stat accounting

I'd been worried by high "swapcached" counts in memcg OOM reports, thought
we had a problem freeing swapcache, but it was just the accounting that
was wrong.

Two issues:

1.  When __remove_mapping() removes swapcache,
   __delete_from_swap_cache() relies on memcg_data for the right counts to
   be updated; but that had already been reset by mem_cgroup_swapout(). 
   Swap those calls around - mem_cgroup_swapout() does not require the
   swapcached flag to be set.

   6.1 commit ac35a490 ("mm: multi-gen LRU: minimal
   implementation") already made a similar swap for workingset_eviction(),
   but not for this.

2.  memcg's "swapcached" count was added for memcg v2 stats, but
   displayed on OOM even for memcg v1: so mem_cgroup_move_account() ought
   to move it.
