[Scheduler] Check for continuous input events

`isInputPending` supports a `includeContinuous` option. When set to
`true`, the method will check for pending continuous inputs, like
`mousemove`, in addition to discrete ones, like `click`.

We will only check for pending continuous inputs if we've blocked the
main thread for a non-neglible amount of time. If we've only blocked
the main thread for, say, a few frames, then we'll only check for
discrete inputs.

I wrote a test for this but didn't include it because we haven't yet set
up the `gate` flag infra to work with Scheduler feature flags. For now,
I ran the test locally.
