Consolidate thread yielding in Scheduler

Browse Source 
There's multiple locations where a thread is yielded in the scheduler and all of them repeat the code of checking for `pendingYield` and signalling with an optional optimization of checking if the thread being yielded is the calling thread.

All this functionality has now been consolidated into `Scheduler::YieldThread` which checks for `pendingYield` and does the calling thread yield optimization. This should lead to better readability and better performance in cases where `UpdatePriority` would signal the calling thread.
