scx_ops_disable_workfn() only switches !TASK_DEAD tasks out of SCX while
calling scx_ops_exit_task() on all tasks including dead ones. This can leave
a dead task on SCX but with SCX_TASK_NONE state, which is inconsistent.

If another task was in the process of changing the TASK_DEAD task's
scheduling class and grabs the rq lock after scx_ops_disable_workfn() is
done with the task, the task ends up calling scx_ops_disable_task() on the
dead task which is in an inconsistent state triggering a warning:

There is no reason to leave dead tasks on SCX when unloading the BPF
scheduler. Fix by making scx_ops_disable_workfn() eject all tasks including
the dead ones from SCX.
