Subject: sched/ext: Fix invalid task state transitions on class switch
When enabling a sched_ext scheduler, we may trigger invalid task state
transitions, resulting in warnings like the following (which can be
easily reproduced by running the hotplug selftest in a loop):
sched_ext: Invalid task state transition 0 -> 3 for fish[770]
WARNING: CPU: 18 PID: 787 at kernel/sched/ext.c:3862 scx_set_task_state+0x7c/0xc0
...
RIP: 0010:scx_set_task_state+0x7c/0xc0

This happens because we skip initialization for tasks that are already
dead (with their usage counter set to zero), but we don't exclude them
during the scheduling class transition phase.
Fix this by also skipping dead tasks during class swiching, preventing
invalid task state transitions.
Fixes: a8532fac7b5d2 ("sched_ext: TASK_DEAD tasks must be switched into SCX on ops_enable")
