sched/cputime: Fix cpu_timer_sample_group() double accounting

While looking over the cpu-timer code I found that we appear to add
the delta for the calling task twice, through:

  cpu_timer_sample_group()
    thread_group_cputimer()
      thread_group_cputime()
        times->sum_exec_runtime += task_sched_runtime();

    *sample = cputime.sum_exec_runtime + task_delta_exec();

Which would make the sample run ahead, making the sleep short.
