sched_ext: Maintain an online cid mask in the scheduler arenagrafted

Schedulers on the default cid mapping treat [0, nr_online_cids) as the
online set and restart on hotplug. Schedulers that install their own mapping
with scx_bpf_cid_override() have no way to learn which cids are online: the
count no longer identifies members and the CPU-form cpumask is unusable from
cid programs. This is an obvious hole in the cid API.

Add scx_bpf_online_cmask(), a kernel-maintained cmask in the scheduler's
arena, allocated alongside the per-CPU scratch masks and populated after the
cid mapping is finalized and before ops.init(), for child schedulers too.
The pointer stays valid through ops.exit() with no reference to take. It is
the arena offset as a void pointer, the same form struct_ops arena arguments
arrive in. The verifier types the void return as a scalar for the program's
arena cast.

The mask follows the SCX hotplug notifications: seeded from cpu_active_mask
and updated before ops.cid_online/offline() runs, so it lags cpu_online_mask
only inside a hotplug transition. Updates walk the scheduler list under the
lock that also serializes unlinking. Reads are live, not atomic snapshots.
Root initialization excludes hotplug.

+=============================
+Device testing with kselftest
+=============================
+
+
+There are a few different kselftests available for testing devices generically,
+with some overlap in coverage and different requirements. This document aims to
+give an overview of each one.
+
+Note: Paths in this document are relative to the kselftest folder
+(``tools/testing/selftests``).
+
+Device oriented kselftests:
+
+* Devicetree (``dt``)
+
+  * **Coverage**: Probe status for devices described in Devicetree
+  * **Requirements**: None
+
+* Error logs (``devices/error_logs``)
+
+  * **Coverage**: Error (or more critical) log messages presence coming from any
+    device
+  * **Requirements**: None
+
+* Discoverable bus (``devices/probe``)
+
+  * **Coverage**: Presence and probe status of USB or PCI devices that have been
+    described in the reference file
+  * **Requirements**: Manually describe the devices that should be tested in a
+    YAML reference file (see ``devices/probe/boards/google,spherion.yaml`` for
+    an example)
+
+* Exist (``devices/exist``)
+
+  * **Coverage**: Presence of all devices
+  * **Requirements**: Generate the reference (see ``devices/exist/README.rst``
+    for details) on a known-good kernel
+
+Therefore, the suggestion is to enable the error log and devicetree tests on all
+(DT-based) platforms, since they don't have any requirements. Then to greatly
+improve coverage, generate the reference for each platform and enable the exist
+test. The discoverable bus test can be used to verify the probe status of
+specific USB or PCI devices, but is probably not worth it for most cases.
