sched: Rework pick_next_task() slow-path
Avoid the RETRY_TASK case in the pick_next_task() slow path.
By doing the put_prev_task() early, we get the rt/deadline pull done,
and by testing rq->nr_running we know if we need newidle_balance().
This then gives a stable state to pick a task from.
Since the fast-path is fair only; it means the other classes will
always have pick_next_task(.prev=NULL, .rf=NULL) and we can simplify.
