z3fold_compact_page() currently only handles the situation when
there's a single middle chunk within the z3fold page. However it
may be worth it to move middle chunk closer to either first or
last chunk, whichever is there, if the gap between them is big
enough.

This patch adds the relevant code, using BIG_CHUNK_GAP define as
a threshold for middle chunk to be worth moving.
