sched: convert struct (sys_)sched_setaffinity() to cpumask_var_t.

Impact: stack usage reduction

Dynamically allocating cpumasks (when CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK) saves
space on the stack.  cpumask_var_t is just a struct cpumask for
!CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK.

Note the removal of the initializer of new_mask: since the first thing
we did was "cpus_and(new_mask, new_mask, cpus_allowed)" I just changed
that to "cpumask_and(new_mask, in_mask, cpus_allowed);".
