Kuba Piecuch 71ba9a5cb1 sched_ext: Documentation: improve accuracy of task lifecycle pseudo-code
* Add ops.quiescent() and ops.runnable() to the sched_change path.
  When a queued task has one of its scheduling properties changed
  (e.g. nice, affinity), it goes through dequeue() -> quiescent() ->
  (property change callback, e.g. ops.set_weight()) -> runnable() ->
  enqueue().

* Change && to || in ops.enqueue() condition. We want to enqueue tasks
  that have a non-zero slice and are not in any DSQ.

* Call ops.dispatch() and ops.dequeue() only for tasks that have had
  ops.enqueue() called. This is to account for tasks direct-dispatched
  from ops.select_cpu().

* Add a note explaining that the pseudo-code provides a simplified view
  of the task lifecycle and list some examples of cases that the
  pseudo-code does not account for.
