selftests/sched_ext: flush stdout before test to avoid log spam

The sched_ext selftests runner runs each test in the same process,
with each test possibly forking multiple times. When the main runner
has not flushed its stdout, the children inherit the buffered output
for previous tests and emit it during exit. This causes log spam.

Make sure stdout/stderr is fully flushed before each test.
