sched/wait: Disambiguate wq_entry->task_list and wq_head->task_list naming

Browse source 
So I've noticed a number of instances where it was not obvious from the
code whether ->task_list was for a wait-queue head or a wait-queue entry.

Furthermore, there's a number of wait-queue users where the lists are
not for 'tasks' but other entities (poll tables, etc.), in which case
the 'task_list' name is actively confusing.

To clear this all up, name the wait-queue head and entry list structure
fields unambiguously:

	struct wait_queue_head::task_list	=> ::head
	struct wait_queue_entry::task_list	=> ::entry

For example, this code:

	rqw->wait.task_list.next != &wait->task_list

... is was pretty unclear (to me) what it's doing, while now it's written this way:

	rqw->wait.head.next != &wait->entry

... which makes it pretty clear that we are iterating a list until we see the head.

Other examples are:

	list_for_each_entry_safe(pos, next, &x->task_list, task_list) {
	list_for_each_entry(wq, &fence->wait.task_list, task_list) {

... where it's unclear (to me) what we are iterating, and during review it's
hard to tell whether it's trying to walk a wait-queue entry (which would be
a bug), while now it's written as:

	list_for_each_entry_safe(pos, next, &x->head, entry) {
	list_for_each_entry(wq, &fence->wait.head, entry) {
