sched: include group statistics in /proc/sched_debug



Impact: extend /proc/sched_debug info

Since the statistics of a group entity isn't exported directly from the
kernel, it becomes difficult to obtain some of the group statistics.
For example, the current method to obtain exec time of a group entity
is not always accurate. One has to read the exec times of all
the tasks(/proc/<pid>/sched) in the group and add them. This method
fails (or becomes difficult) if we want to collect stats of a group over
a duration where tasks get created and terminated.

This patch makes it easier to obtain group stats by directly including
them in /proc/sched_debug. Stats like group exec time would help user
programs (like LTP) to accurately measure the group fairness.

An example output of group stats from /proc/sched_debug:
