sched/fair: Avoid unnecessary balancing of asymmetric capacity groups



On systems with asymmetric cpu capacities, a skewed load distribution
might yield better throughput than balancing load per group capacity.
For example, running compute intensive tasks on high capacity cpus while
leaving low capacity cpus idle. So we let load-balance back off if the
busiest group isn't really overloaded.
