tracing/osnoise: Switch from PF_NO_SETAFFINITY to migrate_disable



Currently, osnoise/timerlat threads run with PF_NO_SETAFFINITY set.
It works well, however, cgroups do not allow PF_NO_SETAFFINITY threads
to be accepted, and this creates a limitation to osnoise/timerlat.

To avoid this limitation, disable migration of the threads as soon
as they start to run, and then clean the PF_NO_SETAFFINITY flag (still)
used during thread creation.

If for some reason a thread migration is requested, e.g., via
sched_settafinity, the tracer thread will notice and exit.
