sched: Do not throttle due to PI boosting
When a runqueue has rt_runtime_us = 0 then the only way it can accumulate rt_time is via PI boosting. Though that causes the runqueue to be throttled and replenishing does not change anything due to rt_runtime_us = 0. So avoid that situation by clearing rt_time and skip the throttling alltogether.
