sched: Add Lazy preemption model
Change fair to use resched_curr_lazy(), which, when the lazy preemption model is selected, will set TIF_NEED_RESCHED_LAZY. This LAZY bit will be promoted to the full NEED_RESCHED bit on tick. As such, the average delay between setting LAZY and actually rescheduling will be TICK_NSEC/2. In short, Lazy preemption will delay preemption for fair class but will function as Full preemption for all the other classes, most notably the realtime (RR/FIFO/DEADLINE) classes. The goal is to bridge the performance gap with Voluntary, such that we might eventually remove that option entirely.
