Use the new tick_get_sleep_length() call in conjunction with the new
TICK state to elide tick_nohz_next_event() when possible.

Specifically, start the state selection using the existing next timer
(tick or earlier). And only when state selection lands on the TICK
state ask for the NOHZ next timer.
