[PATCH sched_ext/for-7.2-fixes] selftests/sched_ext: Make allowed_cpus idle validation race-free

A remotely selected CPU can be re-advertised as idle by an idle-to-idle
re-pick before the BPF program validates the selection. Checking that
the selected CPU remains absent from the idle mask is therefore
inherently racy.

Validate the stable local invariant instead: a CPU running a non-idle
scheduling context in ops.select_cpu() must not be advertised as idle.
Also validate both the requested domain and task affinity for selected
CPUs.

Moreover, bootstrap the test by running a task on every active CPU while
ops.running() refreshes the initial idle state. This ensures that the
idle masks are properly initialized before strict validation begins.
