Subject: [PATCH RFC v0 09/12] Add priority support for the cyclic scheduler

Initial bits to prevent priority changing of cyclic scheduler tasks by
only allow them to be SCHED_FIFO. Fairly hacky at this time and will need
revisiting because of the security concerns.

Affects task death handling since it uses an additional scheduler class
hook for clean up at death. Must be SCHED_FIFO.
