The fp-stress load programs call sched_yield() on each iteration of their test loops in order to encourage preemption, except for sve-test where the call is commented out since the SVE state is destroyed by system calls. This is most likely counterproductive since we are more likely to notice corruption if preemption happens while setting or reading the register state, and since fp-stress starts multiple test programs per CPU we should have no trouble observing preemption anyway.
Remove these calls, including the commented out one in sve-test, both due to this and in order to prepare for running as KVM guests. We also remove the inclusions of unistd.h since we no longer need it in any of the programs. za-test had an unreferenced local label in the middle of the sched_yield(), remove that too.
