sched_ext: Fixes for v7.3-rc3

- An error raised by a BPF program before the scheduler finished enabling
   was consumed by the disable path's pre-enable shortcut, leaving a
   running scheduler that couldn't be disabled and was later freed while
   in use.
 
 - Two compat kfuncs dereferenced a NULL scheduler when handed an exited
   or idle task, oopsing the kernel.
 
 - Keep-running decisions in the dispatch path used the root scheduler's
   flags for tasks belonging to a sub-scheduler, causing warnings and
   stalls.
 
 - Schedulers with their own CPU ID mapping had no way to learn which IDs
   are online. Add a kernel-maintained online mask to plug the hole.
 
 - Cgroup idle state: the initial cpu.idle state wasn't passed on cgroup
   init and same-value rewrites delivered spurious callbacks.
 
 - Example scheduler fixes for a reenqueue loop on attach, placements on
   CPUs without effective grants, stalled partition work and stale idle
   tracking.
