Update libbpf-rs & libbpf-cargo to 0.24. Among other things, generated
skeletons now contain directly accessible map and program objects, no
longer necessitating the use of accessor methods. As a result, the risk
for mutability conflicts is reduced greatly.

sched_ext is about to be merged upstream. There are some compatibility
breaking changes and we're making the current sched_ext/for-6.11
1edab907b57d ("sched_ext/scx_qmap: Pick idle CPU for direct dispatch on
!wakeup enqueues") the baseline.
Tag everything except scx_mitosis as 1.0.0. As scx_mitosis is still in early
development and is currently temporarily disabled, only the patchlevel is
bumped.
With commit 5d20f89a ("scheds-rust: build rust schedulers in sequence"),
schedulers are now built serially one after the other to prevent meson
and cargo from forking NxN parallel tasks.
However, this change has made building a single scheduler much more
cumbersome, due to the chain of dependencies.
For example, building scx_rusty using the specific meson target would
still result in all schedulers being built, because they all depend on
each other.
To address this issue, introduce the new meson build option
`serialize=true|false` (default is false).
This option allows to disable the schedulers' build chain, restoring the
old behavior.
With this option enabled, it is now possible to build just a single
scheduler, parallelizing the cargo build properly, without triggering
the build of the others. Example:
$ meson setup build -Dbuildtype=release -Dserialize=false
$ meson compile -C build scx_rusty

The synchronization for mitosis is a bit ad-hoc, working around lack of
atomics in BPF. This commit updates the logic to use READ/WRITE_ONCE and
compiler barriers to get the behaviors we want.

In preparation of upstreaming, let's set the min version requirement at the
released v6.9 kernels. Drop __COMPAT_scx_bpf_switch_call(). The open helper
macros now check the existence of SCX_OPS_SWITCH_PARTIAL and abort if not.
These are used in mitosis, but they belong in common code so other
schedulers can do css iteration.

scx_mitosis is a dynamic affinity scheduler which assigns cgroups to
Cells and Cells to discrete sets of CPUs. The number of cells is dynamic
as is the CPU assignment. BPF mostly just does vtime scheduling for each
cell, tracks load, and responds to reconfiguration from userspace.
Userspace makes decisions about how to assign cgroups to cells and cells
to cpus.
This is not yet a complete scheduler, much of the userspace logic is a
placeholder as I experiment with better logic. I also want to add richer
scheduling semantics to userspace, e.g. so that cells can do more
"soft-affinity" rather than the strict partitioning implemented
currently.
