sched_ext: Add per-shard cap delegation for sub-schedulers

Caps are per-cid permissions parents delegate to direct children via
scx_bpf_sub_grant() / scx_bpf_sub_revoke(). A child's cap set is always a
subset of its parent's. Sub-scheds check their caps locally, and cross-sched
communication is needed only when the delegation set itself changes.

Caps will be used to implement sub-sched scheduling on the enqueue path.
Picking a cid for a task at a leaf depends on which cids the leaf is allowed
to use, and resolving that programmatically on every enqueue would mean a
cross-sched round-trip call chain, possibly retrying if the request can't be
granted as-is. The dispatch path is different - it runs as top-down
recursion via scx_bpf_sub_dispatch().

Locking is per shard. cid space is split into shards, and each sub-sched has
its own pshard->lock for each shard. Operations are broken up on shard
boundaries. Different shards never contend. Shards are expected to be
topology-aligned and likely to serve as the locality unit when cids are
allocated to schedulers, so per-shard lock granularity scales naturally with
the allocation pattern.

This patch adds the framework with a single dummy cap. Real caps land in
later patches.

The enable path is reordered for pshards. scx_arena_pool_init() moves ahead
of scx_link_sched() so the pshards are allocated before the sched becomes
reachable - scx_alloc_pshards() skips allocation when the arena pool isn't
initialized.

- scx_bpf_sub_grant(): Per-cid all-or-nothing grant to direct child.
- scx_bpf_sub_revoke(): Clear caps on @cmask across @child and its subtree.
- scx_bpf_sub_caps(): Lockless snapshot of caps on a cid range.

/sys/kernel/sched_ext/SCHED/caps shows the caps each scheduler currently
holds.

v4: Move the pshard[] full build/publish and the err_disable scx_error() recording to earlier patches. (sashiko AI)
v3: Build pshard[] fully before publishing it, read it with READ_ONCE. (sashiko AI)
v2: Validate ops before scx_link_sched() publishes the sub. (sashiko AI)
