Given the frequency with which we expect callers to call Yield, it is
not feasible to expect them to record the current time before every call
just to detect how much time elapsed, if any, in the call, when most calls
are expected to be near-instantanious no-ops. Instead, if we want to track
how much time is spent in Yield, we need Yield itself to measure this when
and only when it internally takes the slow, non-noop path and return it to
its caller, so that these (relatively) more expensive clock reads can be
restricted to and only to its rare slow paths where it actually does yield.
