buffer_cache: mark guest memory large buffer uploads came from cold

Like the texture cache's uploads: guest ranges of 256 KiB or more uploaded
to the host GPU are mostly geometry the guest rarely reads again, so every
600 frames they are marked cold and the OS pages them out first when it
needs RAM.
