The method you show is unable to rotate more than 2pi. The simplest way to allow rotating more than 2pi is to fetch the current yaw periodically, and calculate how far the robot has rotated since the last measurement. Add these small values up until you reach whatever total you want.
The above simple method may be a little inaccurate due to drift. You can improve the performance by breaking a big move into multiple smaller moves, each under 2*pi.
Regarding the actual question in the title: I hope we don't need to show you how to convert an angle from [-pi to pi] to [0 to 2*pi].

The above simple method may be a little inaccurate due to drift. You can improve the performance by breaking a big move into multiple smaller moves, each under 2*pi.2* pi.
