sched/rt: Fix PI handling vs. sched_setscheduler()

So normally we dequeue/enqueue tasks in sched_setscheduler(), which would ensure the accounting stays correct. However in the early PI path we fail to do so. So this was introduced at around v3.14, by: c365c292d059 ("sched: Consider pi boosting in setscheduler()") which fixed another problem exactly because that dequeue/enqueue, joy. Fix this by teaching rt about DEQUEUE_SAVE/ENQUEUE_RESTORE and have it preserve runqueue location with that option. This requires decoupling the on_rt_rq() state from being on the list. In order to allow for explicit movement during the SAVE/RESTORE, introduce {DE,EN}QUEUE_MOVE. We still must use SAVE/RESTORE in these cases to preserve other invariants. Respecting the SAVE/RESTORE flags also has the (nice) side-effect that things like sys_nice()/sys_sched_setaffinity() also do not reorder FIFO tasks (whereas they used to before this patch).
