Skip Node Completing

To prevent node resource fragmentation, standard Fsched delays scheduling new jobs when a node releases resources until all releasing jobs on the node complete. This state is called "Completing". Nodes in Completing do not accept new job scheduling. However, this behavior reduces scheduling efficiency for EDA-type jobs that require only one CPU/slot. To address this, we provide the ability to skip node Completing.
