While agreeing that PlugSched's configuration needs overhaul I don't
think this is it as it just makes things more confusing. I'll put
fixing the configuration code on my list of things to do. They main
changes I see as necessary are:

1. Make the ability to select which schedulers are built in independent
of EMBEDDED.
2. Only offer builtin schedulers as choice for the default scheduler.
3. Only build in ingosched if PLUGSCHED is not configured.


I disagree with 3. Surely people might want to build in only one scheduler that is not ingosched without other choices.

Yes, and they would be able to do that by selecting PLUGSCHED and then selecting only the scheduler that they want. But this then leads to the observation that PLUGSCHED is probably makes things unnecessarily complex and all that is required is a means to select the schedulers to be built in and a choice of default (much like for the IO schedulers)?
