sched: Switch rq->next_class on proxy_resched_idle()

K Prateek noticed we weren't setting the rq->next_class in
proxy_resched_idle(), when I was debugging an issue seen with
CONFIG_SCHED_PROXY_EXEC and some of Peter's new patches, and
suggested this fix.

So set rq->next_class when we temporarily switch the donor to
idle, so we don't accidentally call wakeup_preempt_fair()
with idle as the donor.
