slab: add SLAB_CONSISTENCY_CHECKS to SLAB_NEVER_MERGE
All the debug flags prevent merging, except SLAB_CONSISTENCY_CHECKS. This
is suboptimal because this flag (like any debug flags) prevents the
usage of any fastpaths, and thus affect performance of any aliased
cache. Also the objects from an aliased cache than the one specified for
debugging could also interfere with the debugging efforts.
Fix this by adding the whole SLAB_DEBUG_FLAGS collection to
SLAB_NEVER_MERGE instead of individual debug flags, so it now also
includes SLAB_CONSISTENCY_CHECKS.
