sched: add fair-user scheduler

Enable user-id based fair group scheduling. This is useful for anyone
who wants to test the group scheduler w/o having to enable
CONFIG_CGROUPS.

A separate scheduling group (i.e struct task_grp) is automatically created for 
every new user added to the system. Upon uid change for a task, it is made to 
move to the corresponding scheduling group.

A /proc tunable (/proc/root_user_share) is also provided to tune root
user's quota of cpu bandwidth.
