New ProBalance option: Reduce CPU affinity by one core during restraint

[Jeremy Collake]

This feature is available in v6.6.0.33 beta and later builds. It is shown in v6.6.0.30 (current final), but disabled.

What this does is reduce the CPU affinity of restrained processes by one randomly selected core. After restraint ends, the affinity is restored.

This setting is experimental and should be used with caution. It is strongly advised that it be used only with very conservative ProBalance settings on systems with at least 4 logical cores, preferably 8 or more.

Yes, as it will affect some game/software that lock their main thread to core 0, if you changed it, they will not lock anymore until you reopen it.

PS:I also playing with core-parking awhile, found some interesting thing, will keep playing until I found something funny.
