[review] Set names of worker threads
Change URL: https://gnutoolchain-gerrit.osci.io/r/c/binutils-gdb/+/176
......................................................................
Set names of worker threads
This adds some configury so that gdb can set the names of worker
threads. This makes them show up more nicely when debugging gdb
itself.
