sched/isolation: Make "isolcpus=nohz" equivalent to "nohz_full"

The "isolcpus=nohz" boot parameter and flag were used to disable tick
when running a single task.  Nowsdays, this "nohz" flag is seldomly used
as it is included as part of the "nohz_full" parameter.  Extend this
flag to cover other kernel noises disabled by the "nohz_full" parameter
to make them equivalent. This also eliminates the need to use both the
"isolcpus" and the "nohz_full" parameters to fully isolated a given
set of CPUs.
