Subject: [PATCHv2 1/7] sched: Add static_key for asymmetric cpu capacity optimizations

The existing asymmetric cpu capacity code should cause minimal overhead
for others. Putting it behind a static_key, it has been done for SMT
optimizations, would make it easier to extend and improve without
causing harm to others moving forward.
