Subject: [PATCH v3] sched/core: Address classes via __begin_sched_classes

GCC 12 is very sensitive about array checking, and views all negative
array accesses as unsafe (a not unreasonable position). Redefine
sched_class_highest in terms of its location from __begin_sched_classes,
and redefine sched_class_lowest to the actual lowest sched class instead
of one lower. This also means the for_class_range() must be redefined to
be inclusive, which means its 1 caller must be adjusted to have its
"lowest" argument bumped up one position. Silences this warning:

The introduce and use of sched_class_higher() could just be a bare "+ 1",
but this code's backwards walking and non-inclusive for loop was weird
enough, it seemed back to explicitly describe the manipulation
happening.

These can't just be object pointers because GCC still sees it as an
address of a single struct.

The resulting instruction output is identical to before except that one
less register is used in set_rq_online(), where an immediate can now
be used, resulting in a small instruction count savings:
