samples/damon/mtier: fail early if address range parameters are invalid
The comment on top of `struct damon_region` clearly says that
For any use case, @ar should be non-zero positive size.
which is now verified in damon_verify_new_region() if the kernel is built
with DAMON_DEBUG_SANITY.
The WARN_ONCE() can be triggered if the mtier sample module is enabled
before node{0,1}_{start,end}_addr have been properly initialized, which is
obviously not good.

Note that the same issue can happen if detect_node_addresses is true, and
node 0 or 1 is memoryless. Fix it together by checking the validity of
parameters right before damon_new_region() and fail early if they're
invalid.
