Peter Zijlstra e69b0f1b41 sched: Add a few SYNC hint knobs to play with ...

Currently we use overlap to weaken the SYNC hint, but allow it to
set the hint as well.

 echo NO_SYNC_WAKEUP > /debug/sched_features
 echo SYNC_MORE > /debug/sched_features

preserves pipe-test behaviour without using the WF_SYNC hint.

Worth playing with on more workloads...
