cgroups: fix API thinko

cgroup_attach_task_current_cg API that have upstream is backwards: we
really need an API to attach to the cgroups from another process A to
the current one.

In our case (vhost), a priveledged user wants to attach it's task to cgroups
from a less priveledged one, the API makes us run it in the other
task's context, and this fails.

So let's make the API generic and just pass in 'from' and 'to' tasks.
Add an inline wrapper for cgroup_attach_task_current_cg to avoid
breaking bisect.
