Tejun Heo 60f21a2649 cgroup, sched_ext: Include exiting tasks in cgroup iter
a72f73c4dd ("cgroup: Don't expose dead tasks in cgroup") made
css_task_iter_advance() skip exiting tasks so cgroup.procs stays consistent
with waitpid() visibility. Unfortunately, this broke scx_task_iter.

scx_task_iter walks either scx_tasks (global) or a cgroup subtree via
css_task_iter() and the two modes are expected to cover the same set of
tasks. After the above change the cgroup-scoped mode silently skips tasks
past exit_signals() that are still on scx_tasks.

scx_sub_enable_workfn()'s abort path is one of the symptoms: an exiting
SCX_TASK_SUB_INIT task can race past the cgroup iter leaking
__scx_init_task() state. Other iterations share the same gap.

Add CSS_TASK_ITER_WITH_DEAD to opt out of the skip and use it from
scx_task_iter().

Fixes: b0e4c2f8a0 ("sched_ext: Implement cgroup subtree iteration for scx_task_iter")
