SVC: Advance time when calling GetSystemTick to escape busy-wait loops

Cubic Ninja waited for the frame to end by spinning on a loop calling
GetSystemTick while doing nothing else. Since GetSystemTick doesn't
cause a reschedule (which advances time), this meant that very little
emulated time would pass inside that loop, causing the game to spend
most of the frame burning away CPU.
