gpu: nvgpu: improve channel interleave support

Previously, only "high" priority bare channels were interleaved
between all other bare channels and TSGs. This patch decouples
priority from interleaving and introduces 3 levels for interleaving
a bare channel or TSG: high, medium, and low. The levels define
the number of times a channel or TSG will appear on a runlist (see
nvgpu.h for details).

By default, all bare channels and TSGs are set to interleave level
low. Userspace can then request the interleave level to be increased
via the CHANNEL_SET_RUNLIST_INTERLEAVE ioctl (TSG-specific ioctl will
be added later).

As timeslice settings will soon be coming from userspace, the default
timeslice for "high" priority channels has been restored.
