runtime: avoid lock starvation in TestNetpollBreak on Plan 9

TestNetpollBreak was sometimes timing out on Plan 9, where
netpoll_stub.go implements only enough of the network poller
to support runtime timers, using a notetsleep / notewakeup
pair. The runtime.lock which serialises the use of the note
doesn't guarantee fairness, and in practice the netpoll call
used by the test can be starved by the netpoll call from the
scheduler which supports the overall 'go test' timeout.
Calling osyield after relinquishing the lock gives the two
callers a more even chance to take a turn, which prevents
the test from timing out.

Fixes #39437
