sched/isolation: Split out new CONFIG_CPU_ISOLATION=y config from CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL

Split the housekeeping config from CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL. This way we finally
separate the isolation code from NOHZ.

Although a dependency to CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL remains for now, while the
housekeeping code still deals with NOHZ internals.
