sched/fair: Advance global expiration when period timer is restarted

When period gets restarted after some idle time, start_cfs_bandwidth()
doesn't update the expiration information, expire_cfs_rq_runtime() will
see cfs_rq->runtime_expires smaller than rq clock and go to the clock
drift logic, wasting needless CPU cycles on the scheduler hot path.

Update the global expiration in start_cfs_bandwidth() to avoid frequent
expire_cfs_rq_runtime() calls once a new period begins.
