sched/headers: Reorganize, clean up and optimize kernel/sched/sched.h dependencies

Remove all headers, except the ones required to make this header
build standalone.

Also include stats.h in sched.h explicitly - dependencies already
require this.

Summary of the build speedup gained through the last ~15 scheduler build &
header dependency patches:

Cumulative scheduler (kernel/sched/) build time speedup on a
Linux distribution's config, which enables all scheduler features,
compared to the vanilla kernel:

Summary:

  - CPU time used to build the scheduler dropped by -60.9%, a reduction
    from 22.1 clock-seconds to 8.7 clock-seconds.

  - Wall-clock time to build the scheduler dropped by -3.9%, a reduction
    from 2.95 seconds to 2.84 seconds.
