sched: Make set_*_buddy() work on non-task entities

Make set_*_buddy() work on non-task sched_entity, to facilitate the
use of next_buddy to cache a group entity in cases where one of the
tasks within that entity sleeps or gets preempted.

set_skip_buddy() was incorrectly comparing the policy of task that is
yielding to be not equal to SCHED_IDLE. Yielding should happen even
when task yielding is SCHED_IDLE. This change removes the policy check
on the yielding task.
