The idea behind this test is to race two CPUs against each other,
validating that each is truly running simultaneously. But it just
assumed that the other thread/cpu would start synchronously as soon as
k_thread_create() returned.
Normally, that works fine. But while debugging I added some code that
was slowing down entry to the other thread (or maybe the return from
k_thread_create() into the main thread) long enough to allow one
thread to get a significant head start. That breaks the logic in the
test and things were inexplicably "failing".
Put a spin loop around the count so that the main thread can start
counting to within the memory system's ability to inform it of the
change from the other thread.

Simple SMP test to validate the two threads can be simultaneously
scheduled. Arranges things such that both threads are at different
priorities and never yield the CPU, so on a uniprocessor build they
cannot be fairly scheduled. Checks that both are nonetheless making
progress.
