Subject: [PATCH 25/46] sched_ext: Introduce scx_task_sched[_rcu]()

In preparation of multiple scheduler support, add p->scx.sched which points
to the scx_sched instance that the task is scheduled by, which is currently
always scx_root. Add scx_task_sched[_rcu]() accessors which return the
assocaited scx_sched of the specified task and replace the raw scx_root
dereferences with it where applicable.

As scx_root is still the only scheduler, this shouldn't introduce
user-visible behavior changes.
