sched/debug: Show the sum wait time of a task group

Although we can rely on cpuacct to present the CPU usage of task
groups, it is hard to tell how intense the competition is between
these groups on CPU resources.

Monitoring the wait time or sched_debug of each process could be
very expensive, and there is no good way to accurately represent the
conflict with these info, we need the wait time on group dimension.

Thus we introduce group's wait_sum to represent the resource conflict
between task groups, which is simply the sum of the wait time of
the group's cfs_rq.

The 'cpu.stat' is modified to show the statistic, like:

   nr_periods 0
   nr_throttled 0
   throttled_time 0
   wait_sum 2035098795584

Now we can monitor the changes of wait_sum to tell how much a
a task group is suffering in the fight of CPU resources.

For example:

   (wait_sum - last_wait_sum) * 100 / (nr_cpu * period_ns) == X%

means the task group paid X percentage of period on waiting
for the CPU.
