nohz: New option to default all CPUs in full dynticks range

Browse Source 
Provide a new kernel config that defaults all CPUs to be part
of the full dynticks range, except the boot one for timekeeping.

This default setting is overriden by the nohz_full= boot option
if passed by the user.

This is helpful for those who don't need a finegrained range
of full dynticks CPU and also for automated testing.

help
If the user doesn't pass the nohz_full boot option to
define the range of full dynticks CPUs, consider that all
CPUs in the system are full dynticks by default.
Note the boot CPU will still be kept outside the range to
handle the timekeeping duty.
