All of this functionality was duplicated on the `IScheduler` anyway - so removing this makes it possible to actually inject the `ITimeProvider` into downstream dependencies using the `ActorSystem`

Basically, I removed all references to this type (all of which were contained inside Akka.Delivery and Akka.Cluster.Sharding.Delivery) and preferred to use the IScheduler's implementation of these same methods instead, which are identical on the HashedWheelTimer base class.

Changes
Removes dependencies on the static
DateTimeNowTimeProviderand instead has everything use theISchedulerinstead, which provides the exact same functionality with identical implementations. This makes it possible to inject theITimeProviderusing theActorSystem's configuration instead.This should enable us to be able to support .NET 8's
TimeProvidermore easily in the future for testing purposes.Checklist
