Righi: Writing a scheduler for Linux in Rust that runs in user-space

Description:
Andrea Righi has started
a blog series on writing a user-space CPU scheduler with the BPF-based 
extensible scheduler class : .select_cpu() implements the logic to assign a 
target CPU to a task
	that wants to run, typically you have to decide if you want to keep
	the task on the same CPU or if it needs to be migrated to a
	different one (for example if the current CPU is busy); if we can
	find an idle CPU at this stage theres no reason to call the
	scheduler, the task can be immediately dispatched here.
