sched/eevdf: Fix min_deadline heap integrity

Marek and Biju reported instances of:

  "EEVDF scheduling fail, picking leftmost"

which Mike correlated with cgroup scheduling and the min_deadline heap
getting corrupted; some trace output confirms:

Turns out that reweight_entity(), which tries really hard to be fast,
does not do the normal dequeue+update+enqueue pattern but *does* scale
the deadline.

However, it then fails to propagate the updated deadline value up the
heap.
