sched: Introduce temporary FAIR_GROUP_SCHED dependency for load-tracking
While per-entity load-tracking is generally useful, beyond computing shares distribution, e.g. runnable based load-balance (in progress), governors, power-management, etc. These facilities are not yet consumers of this data. This may be trivially reverted when the information is required; but avoid paying the overhead for calculations we will not use until then.
