sched: Remove __ARCH_WANT_INTERRUPTS_ON_CTXSW
Now that the last architecture to use this has stopped doing so (ARM, thanks Catalin!) we can remove this complexity from the scheduler core.

202. Interrupt status
21By default, the switch_to arch function is called with interrupts
22disabled. Interrupts may be enabled over the call if it is likely to
23introduce a significant interrupt latency by adding the line
24`#define __ARCH_WANT_INTERRUPTS_ON_CTXSW` in the same place as for
25unlocked context switches. This define also implies
26`__ARCH_WANT_UNLOCKED_CTXSW`. See arch/arm/include/asm/system.h for an
27example.
