sched_ext: Add SCX_ENQ_IGNORE_CAPS for in-place restore
A SAVE/RESTORE requeue re-inserts a running task in place and is immediately followed by set_next_task_scx(). It is not a real scheduling event: the task is already admitted to its cid and must return to the local DSQ unconditionally. scx_caps_for_enq() maps an enqueue to the cap its local-DSQ insert requires. Add SCX_ENQ_IGNORE_CAPS, set it on the RESTORE-in-place branch of enqueue_task_scx(), and have scx_caps_for_enq() require no caps for it, so the cid admission gate never diverts an in-place restore to the reject DSQ.
