sched/pelt: Continue to relax the sync of util_sum with util_avg

Rick reported performance regressions in bugzilla because of cpu frequency
being lower than before:
    https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215045

He bisected the problem to:
commit 1c35b07e6d39 ("sched/fair: Ensure _sum and _avg values stay consistent")

This commit forces util_sum to be synced with the new util_avg after
removing the contribution of a task and before the next periodic sync. By
doing so util_sum is rounded to its lower bound and might lost up to
LOAD_AVG_MAX-1 of accumulated contribution which has not yet been
reflected in util_avg.

update_tg_cfs_util() is not the only place where we round util_sum and
lost some accumulated contributions that are not already reflected in
util_avg. Modify update_tg_cfs_util() and detach_entity_load_avg() to not
sync util_sum with the new util_avg. Instead of always setting util_sum to
the low bound of util_avg, which can significantly lower the utilization,
we propagate the difference. In addition, we also check that cfs's util_sum
always stays above the lower bound for a given util_avg as it has been
observed that sched_entity's util_sum is sometimes above cfs one.
