sched/fair: Calculate runnable_weight slightly differently

Our runnable_weight currently looks like this

runnable_weight = shares * runnable_load_avg / load_avg

The goal is to scale the runnable weight for the group based on its runnable to
load_avg ratio.  The problem with this is it biases us towards tasks that never
go to sleep.  Tasks that go to sleep are going to have their runnable_load_avg
decayed pretty hard, which will drastically reduce the runnable weight of groups
with interactive tasks.  To solve this imbalance we tweak this slightly, so in
the ideal case it is still the above, but in the interactive case it is

runnable_weight = shares * runnable_weight / load_weight

which will make the weight distribution fairer between interactive and
non-interactive groups.
