sched/numa: Remove numa_has_capacity()

task_numa_find_cpu() helps to find the CPU to swap/move the task to.
It's guarded by numa_has_capacity(). However node not having capacity
shouldn't deter a task swapping if it helps NUMA placement.

Further load_too_imbalanced(), which evaluates possibilities of move/swap,
provides similar checks as numa_has_capacity.

Hence remove numa_has_capacity() to enhance possibilities of task
swapping even if load is imbalanced.
