sched/fair: Switch to task based throttle model

In current throttle model, when a cfs_rq is throttled, its entity will
be dequeued from cpu's rq, making tasks attached to it not able to run,
thus achiveing the throttle target.

This has a drawback though: assume a task is a reader of percpu_rwsem
and is waiting. When it gets woken, it can not run till its task group's
next period comes, which can be a relatively long time. Waiting writer
will have to wait longer due to this and it also makes further reader
build up and eventually trigger task hung.

To improve this situation, change the throttle model to task based, i.e.
when a cfs_rq is throttled, record its throttled status but do not remove
it from cpu's rq. Instead, for tasks that belong to this cfs_rq, when
they get picked, add a task work to them so that when they return
to user, they can be dequeued there. In this way, tasks throttled will
not hold any kernel resources. And on unthrottle, enqueue back those
tasks so they can continue to run.

Throttled cfs_rq's PELT clock is handled differently now: previously the
cfs_rq's PELT clock is stopped once it entered throttled state but since
now tasks(in kernel mode) can continue to run, change the behaviour to
stop PELT clock when the throttled cfs_rq has no tasks left.
