added support to set thread names for debugging. this wraps the gnu
extension to set a thread name of up to 15 chars (16 inc nul byte).
eina_thread_name_set() is the new api.
@feature
in the process i found the autofoo wasnt enabling cpu affinity support
at all in reality, so i had to fix that at the same time.
This should not be an ABI regression on the platform where it work (Unix). It is on Windows,
but the API was unusable at all without this change, so this is a necessary breakage to
unbreak things.

eina_thread_join() is nasty and didn't report errors :-(
I'm using Eina_Error here, but it's global to the application and not
thread-local. Maybe we should make eina_error_get() and
eina_error_set() thread-local storage?
