sched/x86: Make CONFIG_SCHED_MC_PRIO=y easier to enable
Right now CONFIG_SCHED_MC_PRIO has X86_INTEL_PSTATE as a dependency,
which is not enabled by default and which hides the CONFIG_SCHED_MC_PRIO
hardware-enabling feature.
Select X86_INTEL_PSTATE instead, plus its dependency (CPU_FREQ), if the
user enables CONFIG_SCHED_MC_PRIO=y.
(Also align the CONFIG_SCHED_MC_PRIO Kconfig help text in standard style.)
