sched/fair: discount task contribution to find CPU with lowest utilization
In some cases, the new_util of a task can be the same on several
CPUs. This causes an issue because the target_util is only updated
if the current new_util is strictly smaller than target_util.
To fix that, the cpu_util_wake() return value is used alongside the
new_util value. If two CPUs compute the same new_util value,
we'll now also look at their cpu_util_wake() return value. In this
case, the CPU that last ran the task will be chosen in priority.
