sched_ext: Handle SCX_TASK_NONE in disable/switched_from paths

scx_fail_parent() leaves cgroup tasks at (state=NONE, sched=parent,
sched_class=ext) until the parent itself is torn down by the scx_error() it
raised. When the later root_disable iterates them, two paths trip on NONE.

scx_disable_and_exit_task() re-enters the wrapper at NONE: the inner switch
returns early but the trailing scx_set_task_sched(p, NULL) clobbers the
parent sched left by scx_fail_parent(), and scx_set_task_state(p, NONE)
wastes a write on an already-NONE task. switched_from_scx() then calls
scx_disable_task(), which WARNs on non-ENABLED state and writes state=READY,
producing a NONE -> READY transition the validation matrix rejects.

Treat NONE as "nothing to do" in both paths. Add a NONE early-return at the
top of scx_disable_and_exit_task() and a parallel NONE check in
switched_from_scx() next to task_dead_and_done().
