sched_ext: Add scx_bpf_dsq_reenq_task() to re-enqueue single tasks from a DSQ iteration
scx_bpf_dsq_reenq() re-enqueues a whole DSQ, but a scheduler that loses the cpus serving a DSQ, such as a sub-scheduler after a cap revoke, needs only the stranded tasks placed again. Add scx_bpf_dsq_reenq_task(), which marks a task from a DSQ iteration. When the iteration ends, the DSQ's deferred re-enqueue walk is scheduled once and re-enqueues only the marked tasks. The kfunc locks the task's rq and the DSQ like scx_bpf_dsq_move() and is callable from the same contexts. The mark is cleared when the task leaves the DSQ, so a task consumed before the walk is not re-enqueued. An iteration's DSQ can be destroyed before the iteration ends, so schedule_dsq_reenq() now skips a destroyed DSQ instead of aborting the scheduler. scx_bpf_dsq_reenq() racing scx_bpf_destroy_dsq() takes the same path. Declare the kfunc for the tools and add a compat probe. v2: Note in the kerneldoc that another iteration's re-enqueue may take a marked task early, and that a task on another scheduler returns false (Andrea).
