sched/deadline: Fix dl_server time accounting

The dl_server time accounting code is a little odd. The normal scheduler
pattern is to update curr before doing something, such that the old state is
fully accounted before changing state.

Notably, the dl_server_timer() needs to propagate the current time accounting
since the current task could be ran by dl_server and thus this can affect
dl_se->runtime. Similarly for dl_server_start().

And since the (deferred) dl_server wants idle time accounted, rework
sched_idle_class time accounting to be more like all the others.
