git: sbin/usched: Use uint64_t for cpu#

[Tomohiro Kusumi]

I'm trying to add better dfly support for fio (which was originally written
for linux kernel) since he accepts these non-linux stuff that I've sent so
far.
https://github.com/axboe/fio/commits/master?author=kusumi

CPU affinity is one of the things that the fio has no support on dfly,
while it does support on freebsd (and obviously linux), however it seems
usched_set(2) may need some enhancement to fully support fio.

I'll ask Matt and Sephe and others if I ever try to make any change to this
syscall's feature and/or interface, but providing similar interface as
linux or freebsd may provide better support for some userspace programs
that require cpu affinity control like fio.
