sched/kcpustat: Introduce vtime-aware kcpustat accessor for CPUTIME_SYSTEM

Kcpustat is not correctly supported on nohz_full CPUs. The tick doesn't fire and the cputime therefore doesn't move forward. The issue has shown up after the vanishing of the remaining 1Hz which has made the stall visible. We are solving that with checking the task running on a CPU through RCU and reading its vtime delta that we add to the raw kcpustat values. We make sure that we fetch a coherent raw-kcpustat/vtime-delta couple sequence while checking that the CPU referred by the target vtime is the correct one, under the locked vtime seqcount. Only CPUTIME_SYSTEM is handled here as a start because it's the trivial case. User and guest time will require more preparation work to correctly handle niceness.
