sched: Migrate sched to use new tick dependency mask model

Instead of providing asynchronous checks for the nohz subsystem to verify
sched tick dependency, migrate sched to the new mask.

Everytime a task is enqueued or dequeued, we evaluate the state of the
tick dependency on top of the policy of the tasks in the runqueue, by
order of priority:

SCHED_DEADLINE: Need the tick in order to periodically check for runtime
SCHED_FIFO    : Don't need the tick (no round-robin)
SCHED_RR      : Need the tick if more than 1 task of the same priority
                for round robin (simplified with checking if more than
                one SCHED_RR task no matter what priority).
SCHED_NORMAL  : Need the tick if more than 1 task for round-robin.

We could optimize that further with one flag per sched policy on the tick
dependency mask and perform only the checks relevant to the policy
concerned by an enqueue/dequeue operation.

Since the checks aren't based on the current task anymore, we could get
rid of the task switch hook but it's still needed for posix cpu
timers.
