sched/fair: Add per-CPU min capacity to sched_group_capacity
struct sched_group_capacity currently represents the compute capacity
sum of all CPUs in the sched_group.
Unless it is divided by the group_weight to get the average capacity
per CPU, it hides differences in CPU capacity for mixed capacity systems
(e.g. high RT/IRQ utilization or ARM big.LITTLE).
But even the average may not be sufficient if the group covers CPUs of
different capacities.
Instead, by extending struct sched_group_capacity to indicate min per-CPU
capacity in the group a suitable group for a given task utilization can
more easily be found such that CPUs with reduced capacity can be avoided
for tasks with high utilization (not implemented by this patch).
