workqueue: mark power efficient workqueue as unbounded if nohz_full enabled 

A customer using nohz_full has experienced the following interruption:

Set wq_power_efficient to true, in case nohz_full is enabled.
This makes the power efficient workqueue be unbounded, which allows
workqueue items there to be moved to HK CPUs.
