sched: redundant reschedule when set_user_nice() boosts a prio of a task from the "expired" array

- Make TASK_PREEMPTS_CURR(task, rq) return "true" only if the task's prio
  is higher than the current's one and the task is in the "active" array.
  This ensures we don't make redundant resched_task() calls when the task
  is in the "expired" array (as may happen now in set_user_prio(),
  rt_mutex_setprio() and pull_task() ) ;

- generalise conditions for a call to resched_task() in set_user_nice(),
  rt_mutex_setprio() and sched_setscheduler()
