Previously core load was only considered for main lcore.
Other cores were used based on cpumask only.
Once an active thread was placed on core it remained there
until idle. If _get_next_target_core() looped around,
the core might receive another active thread.
This patch makes the core load matter for placement of any thread.
As of this patch if no core can fit a thread it will remain there.
Later in the series least busy core will be used to balance
threads when every core is already busy.
Modified the functional test that depended on always selecting
consecutive core, even if 'current' one fit the bill.
Later in the series the round robin logic for core selection
is removed all together.
Fixed typo in test while here.
Note: _can_core_fit_thread() intentionally does not check
core->interrupt_mode and uses tsc. That flag is only updated
at the end of balancing right now. Meanwhile tsc is updated
one first thread moved to the core, so it is no longer
considered in interrupt mode.

Idle threads are always moved to main core, there are no
other considations. Doing it as separate first pass,
allows to have the core stats be up to date for second
pass for active threads.
Core load stats will be used later in the series to determine
optimal target core for an active thread.

When picking a path to go down with a thread,
conditions unnecessarily piled up.
Instead do it either of two ways:
- move idle threads to main core
- find best core for active threads and move them there
There is no need to worry about cpumask of the thread,
since _find_optimal_core() will always return a core
within the cpumask.
If the found core is the same one as the current,
_move_thread() won't perform any action.

Refactor all thread moves and core stats updates to single function.
At this time in series only tsc of main core was modified and
only idle tsc of main core was used. Main core would be either
the destination core or the source core. In both cases, the idle
time for main core had to be updated.
This patch generalizes this logic to always move the execution
time from source core to destination core.
As a byproduct cores besides main core have the stats updated,
which will be useful later in the series. Once core load will
be the deciding factor for choosing a core.

At this time only main lcore frequency is changed,

Exception is when at least a single busy thread is present
on non-g_main_lcore. Then the main lcore frequency is set
to the maximum possible.
This patch moves when that is determined, from 'moving'
logic to one that sets reactors to interrupt mode.
If at least one thread is present on non-g_main_lcore,
it has to be busy. Otherwise it would be placed on main lcore.
