Subject: [RFC][PATCH v13 1/7] sched: Add CONFIG_SCHED_PROXY_EXEC & boot
 argument to enable/disable

Add a CONFIG_SCHED_PROXY_EXEC option, along with a boot argument
sched_proxy_exec= that can be used to disable the feature at boot
time if CONFIG_SCHED_PROXY_EXEC was enabled.

v7:
* Switch to CONFIG_SCHED_PROXY_EXEC/sched_proxy_exec= as
  suggested by Metin Kaya.
* Switch boot arg from =disable/enable to use kstrtobool(),
  which supports =yes|no|1|0|true|false|on|off, as also
  suggested by Metin Kaya, and print a message when a boot
  argument is used.
v8:
* Move CONFIG_SCHED_PROXY_EXEC under Scheduler Features as
  Suggested by Metin
* Minor rework reordering with split sched contexts patch
v12:
* Rework for selected -> donor renaming
