sched_ext: Fix out-of-bounds access in scx_idle_init_masks()

Browse source 
scx_idle_node_masks is allocated with num_possible_nodes() elements but
indexed by NUMA node IDs via for_each_node(). On systems with
non-contiguous NUMA node numbering (e.g. nodes 0 and 4), node IDs can
exceed the array size, causing out-of-bounds memory corruption.

Use nr_node_ids instead, which represents the maximum node ID range and
is the correct size for arrays indexed by node ID.

Fixes: 7c60329e3521 ("sched_ext: Add NUMA-awareness to the default idle selection policy")
