On 2 x Intel Sapphire Rapids machines with 224 logical CPUs, a poorly
behaving BPF scheduler can live-lock the system by making multiple CPUs bang
on the same DSQ to the point where soft-lockup detection triggers before
SCX's own watchdog can take action. It also seems possible that the machine
can be live-locked enough to prevent scx_ops_helper, which is an RT task,
from running in a timely manner.
Implement scx_softlockup() which is called when three quarters of
soft-lockup threshold has passed. The function immediately enables the ops
breather and triggers an ops error to initiate ejection of the BPF
scheduler.
The previous and this patch combined enable the kernel to reliably recover
the system from live-lock conditions that can be triggered by a poorly
behaving BPF scheduler on Intel dual socket systems.

0e7ffff1b811 ("scx: Fix raciness in scx_ops_bypass()") converted
scx_ops_bypass_depth from an atomic to an int. Update scx_show_state.py
accordingly.

As discussed during the distro-centric session within the sched_ext
Microconference at LPC 2024, introduce a sequence counter that is
incremented every time a BPF scheduler is loaded.
This feature can help distributions in diagnosing potential performance
regressions by identifying systems where users are running (or have ran)
custom BPF schedulers.
Example:
arighi@virtme-ng~> cat /sys/kernel/sched_ext/enable_seq
0
arighi@virtme-ng~> sudo scx_simple
local=1 global=0
^CEXIT: unregistered from user space
arighi@virtme-ng~> cat /sys/kernel/sched_ext/enable_seq
1
In this way user-space tools (such as Ubuntu's apport and similar) are
able to gather and include this information in bug reports.

There are states which are interesting but don't quite fit the interface
exposed under /sys/kernel/sched_ext. Add tools/scx_show_state.py to show
them.
