sched: Fix interactivity bug by charging unaccounted run-time on entity re-weight

Mike Galbraith reported poor interactivity[*] when the new shares distribution
code was combined with autogroups.

The root cause turns out to be a mis-ordering of accounting accrued execution
time and shares updates.  Since update_curr() is issued hierarchically,
updating the parent entity weights to reflect child enqueue/dequeue results in
the parent's unaccounted execution time then being accrued (vs vruntime) at the
new weight as opposed to the weight present at accumulation.

While this doesn't have much effect on processes with timeslices that cross a
tick, it is particularly problematic for an interactive process (e.g. Xorg)
which incurs many (tiny) timeslices.  In this scenario almost all updates are
at dequeue which can result in significant fairness perturbation (especially if
it is the only thread, resulting in potential {tg->shares, MIN_SHARES}
transitions).

Correct this by ensuring unaccounted time is accumulated prior to manipulating
an entity's weight.
