Attachment 242045: Thread name patch

https://bugs.webkit.org/attachment.cgi?id=242045&action=review




--- Description ---
Add support for naming threads on Linux. setname_np is only available on recent
glibc, whereas prctl is there on every libc.

The scavenger thread name is shortened a bit, as the Linux limit is 15 chars.
