sched, rt: Update rq clock when unthrottling of an otherwise idle CPU

If an RT task is awakened while it's rt_rq is throttled, the time between
wakeup/enqueue and unthrottle/selection may be accounted as rt_time
if the CPU is idle.  Set rq->skip_clock_update negative upon throttle
release to tell put_prev_task() that we need a clock update.
