[PATCH 03/10] introduce systhread layer

[Tom Tromey <tromey@redhat.com>]

This introduces the low-level system threading support.  It also adds
the global lock.  The low-level support is a bit over-eager, in that
even at the end of the present series, it will not all be used.  I
think thiat is ok since I plan to use it all eventually.

I've only implemented the pthreads-based version.  I think it should
be relatively clear how to port this to other systems, though.

I'd also like to do a "no threads" port that will turn most things
into no-ops, and have thread-creation fail.  I was thinking perhaps
I'd make a future (provide 'threads) conditional on threads actually
working.  Thoughts on this?

One other minor enhancement available here is to make it possible to
set the name of the new thread at the OS layer.  That way gdb, e.g.,
could display thread names.
