Tejun Heo 5209c03c8e sched_ext: Rename scx_bpf_consume() to scx_bpf_dsq_move_to_local()
In sched_ext API, a repeatedly reported pain point is the overuse of the
verb "dispatch" and confusion around "consume":

- ops.dispatch()
- scx_bpf_dispatch[_vtime]()
- scx_bpf_consume()
- scx_bpf_dispatch[_vtime]_from_dsq*()

This overloading of the term is historical. Originally, there were only
built-in DSQs and moving a task into a DSQ always dispatched it for
execution. Using the verb "dispatch" for the kfuncs to move tasks into these
DSQs made sense.

Later, user DSQs were added and scx_bpf_dispatch[_vtime]() updated to be
able to insert tasks into any DSQ. The only allowed DSQ to DSQ transfer was
from a non-local DSQ to a local DSQ and this operation was named "consume".
This was already confusing as a task could be dispatched to a user DSQ from
ops.enqueue() and then the DSQ would have to be consumed in ops.dispatch().
Later addition of scx_bpf_dispatch_from_dsq*() made the confusion even worse
as "dispatch" in this context meant moving a task to an arbitrary DSQ from a
user DSQ.

Clean up the API with the following renames:

1. scx_bpf_dispatch[_vtime]()		-> scx_bpf_dsq_insert[_vtime]()
2. scx_bpf_consume()			-> scx_bpf_dsq_move_to_local()
3. scx_bpf_dispatch[_vtime]_from_dsq*()	-> scx_bpf_dsq_move[_vtime]*()

This patch performs the second rename. Compatibility is maintained by:

- The previous kfunc names are still provided by the kernel so that old
  binaries can run. Kernel generates a warning when the old names are used.

- compat.bpf.h provides wrappers for the new names which automatically fall
  back to the old names when running on older kernels. They also trigger
  build error if old names are used for new builds.

The compat features will be dropped after v6.15.

v2: Comment and documentation updates.

* A simple scheduler.
*
* By default, it operates as a simple global weighted vtime scheduler and can
* be switched to FIFO scheduling. It also demonstrates the following niceties.
*
* - Statistics tracking how many tasks are queued to local and global dsq's.
* - Termination notification for userspace.
*
* While very simple, this scheduler should work reasonably well on CPUs with a
* uniform L3 cache topology. While preemption is not implemented, the fact that
* the scheduling queue is shared across all CPUs means that whatever is at the
* front of the queue is likely to be executed fairly quickly given enough
* number of CPUs. The FIFO scheduling mode may be beneficial to some workloads
* but comes with the usual problems with FIFO scheduling where saturating
* threads can easily drown out interactive ones.
