* Changed the watchdog timer to improve the speed of UpdateThread(), only track threads once the first call to UpdateThread() has been made, and allow re-tracking of threads that timed out but revived later

* Added a commented out call to Watchdog.UpdateThread() in OdeScene. If it turns out that loading a large OAR file or some other operation is timing out the heartbeat thread, we'll need to uncomment it
