This adds two new flags to spu_create:

SPU_CREATE_NONSCHED: create a context that is never moved
away from an SPE once it has started running. This flag
can only be used by tasks with the CAP_SYS_NICE capability.

SPU_CREATE_ISOLATED: create a nonschedulable context that
enters isolation mode upon first run. This requires the
SPU_CREATE_NONSCHED flag.
