process-util: Add support SCHED_EXT scheduling policy

Allow CPUSchedulingPolicy to be set to "ext". SCHED_EXT is a new
scheduling policy in Linux v6.12 that allows processes to be scheduled
using custom BPF schedulers instead of the default in-kernel ones.

Selectively setting the SCHED_EXT policy is useful for systems running
in "partial mode" where not all processes are run using a custom
scheduler.

Fallback to SCHED_OTHER and print an error message for systems where
SCHED_EXT isn't available.
