sched/numa: Use similar logic to the load balancer for moving between domains with spare capacity
The standard load balancer generally tries to keep the number of running tasks or idle CPUs balanced between NUMA domains. The NUMA balancer allows tasks to move if there is spare capacity but this causes a conflict and utilisation between NUMA nodes gets badly skewed. This patch uses similar logic between the NUMA balancer and load balancer when deciding if a task migrating to its preferred node can use an idle CPU.
