perf(runtime): drain due timers with extract_if instead of split_off - #1072

Conversation
Despite both extract_if and split_off being O(log N) on the number of active timers, split_off is a much heavier operation that performs a number of allocations before even starting the search. It creates a measurable cost per ticks on the scale of thousands of running timers. extract_if is just one O(log N) search for the smallest key, then O(1) sibling walk on the tree. AI disclaimer: AI was used to pin down the cost increase with running timers, analyzed split_off implementation and suggested the use of extract_if instead.
