sched/core: Fix priority checking for DL server picks
In core scheduling, a DL server pick (which is CFS task) should be given higher priority than tasks in other classes. Not doing so causes CFS starvation. A kselftest is added later to demonstrate this. A CFS task that is competing with RT tasks can be completely starved without this and the DL server's boosting completely ignored. Fix these problems.
