sched/numa: Find an alternative idle CPU if the CPU is part of an active NUMA balance

Multiple tasks can attempt to select and idle CPU but fail because
numa_migrate_on is already set and the migration fails. Instead of failing,
scan for an alternative idle CPU. select_idle_sibling is not used because
it requires IRQs to be disabled and it ignores numa_migrate_on allowing
multiple tasks to stack. This scan may still fail if there are idle
candidate CPUs due to races but if this occurs, it's best that a task
stay on an available CPU that move to a contended one.
