credit2: add a callback to migrate to a new cpu

In credit2, there needs to be a strong correlation between
v->processor and the runqueue to which a vcpu is assigned;
much of the code relies on this invariant.  Allow credit2
to manage the actual migration itself.

This fixes the most recent credit2 bug reported on the list
(Xen BUG at sched_credit2.c:1606) in Xen 4.1, as well as
the bug at sched_credit2.c:811 in -unstable (which catches the
same condition earlier).
