Subject: [PATCH v6 3/4] sched/fair: Skip detach sched avgs for new task when changing task groups

Newly forked task has not been enqueued, so should not be removed from
cfs_rq in task_move_group_fair(). To do so, we identify newly forked
tasks if their sum_exec_runtime is 0, an existing heuristic as per
vruntime_normalized(). In addition to that, uniformly use this test
in remove_entity_load_avg().
