Yup, will work too. See the diff below.

====================

> Could scheduler skip this fiber at some loop iteration? In other words, won't this test be flaky?

Nope. Unless the fiber is sleeping on some condition or for a timeout, a plain
sleep(0) also known as fiber.yield() won't skip this fiber on the next
iteration of the loop. But does not matter if csw is used to count the yields.

Full new patch below.

====================
    util: introduce yielding table functions
    
    The patch adds functions table_copy_yield and table_minus_yield.
    
    Yielding copy creates a duplicate of a table but yields every
    specified number of keys copied.
    
    Yielding minus removes matching key-value pairs specified in one
    table from another table. It yields every specified number of keys
    passed.
    
    The functions should help to process huge Lua tables (millions of
    elements and more). These are going to be used on the storage in
    the new GC algorithm.
    
    The algorithm will need to keep a route table on the storage, just
    like on the router, but with expiration time for the routes. Since
    bucket count can be millions, it means GC will potentially operate
    on a huge Lua table and could use some yields so as not to block
    TX thread for long.
    
    Needed for #147
