nohz: Move ts->idle_calls incrementation into strict idle logic
Since we want to prepare for making the nohz API to work further the idle case, we need to pull ts->idle_calls incrementation up to the callers in idle. To perform this, we split tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() in two parts: a first one that checks if we can really stop the tick for idle, and another that actually stops it. Then from the callers in idle, we check if we can stop the tick and only then we increment idle_calls and finally relay to the nohz API that won't care about these details anymore.
