sched/fair: Clean up asym packing

Clean up asym packing to follow the default load balance behavior:

- classify the group by creating a group_asym_packing field.
- calculate the imbalance in calculate_imbalance() instead of bypassing it.

We don't need to test twice same conditions anymore to detect asym packing
and we consolidate the calculation of imbalance in calculate_imbalance().

There is no functional changes.
