The utilization is a well defined property of tasks and CPUs with an
in-kernel representation based on power-of-two values.
The current representation, in the [0..SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE] range,
allows efficient computations in hot-paths and a sufficient fixed point
arithmetic precision.
However, the utilization values range is still an implementation detail
which is also possibly subject to changes in the future.

Since we don't want to commit new user-space APIs to any in-kernel
implementation detail, let's add an abstraction layer on top of the APIs
used by util_clamp, i.e. sched_{set,get}attr syscalls and the cgroup's
cpu.util_{min,max} attributes.

We do that by adding a couple of conversion functions which can be used
to conveniently transform utilization/capacity values from/to the internal
SCHED_FIXEDPOINT_SCALE representation to/from a more generic percentage
in the standard [0..100] range.
