Subject: [PATCH v2 1/1] sched_ext: Add error logging for dsq creation failures

From: George Guo <guodongtai@...inos.cn>

Add scx_bpf_error() calls when scx_bpf_create_dsq() fails in multiple
schedulers to improve debuggability:

- scx_central.bpf.c: central_init()
- scx_flatcg.bpf.c: fcg_cgroup_init() and fcg_init()
- scx_qmap.bpf.c: qmap_init()
