Refactor the map_deny_write_exec() to not unnecessarily require a VMA
parameter but rather to accept VMA flags parameters, which allows us to use
this function early in mmap_region() in a subsequent commit.

While we're here, we refactor the function to be more readable and add some
additional documentation.
