In order to move to an eligibility based scheduling policy, we need to have a better approximation of the ideal scheduler. Specifically, for a virtual time weighted fair queueing based scheduler the ideal scheduler will be the weighted average of the individual virtual runtimes (math in the comment). As such, compute the weighted average to approximate the ideal scheduler -- note that the approximation is in the individual task behaviour, which isn't strictly conformant. Specifically consider adding a task with a vruntime left of center, in this case the average will move backwards in time -- something the ideal scheduler would of course never do.
