This replaces all state-related variables with a single ThreadState.
These are simplified over what the Kernel has, but capture all
userspace-available thread state.
Locking the state behind an atomic and using proper atomic operations
also gets rid of quite some deadlocks and race conditions that have
existed around m_tid and others beforehand.
In terms of behavior, this introduces the following changes:
- All thread state mishandling (e.g. joining a detached thread) crashes
the program. Mishandling thread state is a severe kind of concurrency
bug that might also be indeterministic, so letting it silently
disappear with the return value of pthread_ APIs is a bad idea. The
thread state can always be checked beforehand to ensure that no crash
happens.
- Destructing a still-running thread will crash in AK/Function, so the
Thread destructor issues its own warning for debugging purposes.
- Thread issues warnings before crashes in many places to aid
concurrency debugging (the most difficult kind of debugging).
- Joining dead but not detached threads is legal, as per POSIX APIs.
- The thread ID is never reset to 0 after the thread has been started
and subsequently been assigned a valid thread ID. The thread's exit
state is still obtainable.
- Detaching threads that are about to exit is considered a programming
bug and will often (not always, as we can't catch all execution
sequences involved in such a situation) crash the program on purpose.
If you want to detach a thread that will definitely exit on its own,
you have to prevent it from exiting before detach() was called (e.g.
with an "exit requested" flag).
