sched/fair: Fix flat hierarchy

When a fair task is enqueued, we must update curr and more precisely
its vruntime before placing the enqueued task so avg vruntime will take
into account the last exec phase.

Example:
TA is an always running task in cgroup G0.
TB is a short running task (cyclictest) in cgroup G1.
The lag of TB always increases up the clamp limit because TB is placed
before TA(curr) is updated (since the last tick). When curr(TA) is
finally updated, its last exec phase provide positive lag to TB

Because TA and TB don't belong to the same group, enqueue_hierarchy() will not
update TA's entity when updating curr but only G0's entity at root level.

The same applies when dequeuing.

This is because update_curr() uses ->h_curr, rather than ->curr, and therefore,
while it is invoked on the root cfs_rq, which contains all the eevdf bits, it
does not do the right thing.
