core/mutex: use thread_yield_higher() in mutex_unlock()

Browse Source 
Using `sched_switch()` in `mutex_unlock()` can result in crashes when
`mutex_unlock()` is called from IRQ context. This however is a common
pattern in RIOT to wake up a thread from IRQ. The reason for the crash
is that `sched_switch()` assumes `thread_get_active()` to always return
a non-`NULL` value. But when thread-less idle is used, no thread may be
active after the last runnable thread exited. Using
`thread_yield_higher()` instead solves the issue, as
`thread_yield_higher()` is safe to call from IRQ context without an
active thread.
