[ECOS] Posix Thread name

[Tony Butt]

I had a requirement to be able to explicitly set the name of a posix thread,
made some simple changes to posix/current/src/pthread.cxx and
posix/current/include/types.h, and can now optionally set the name of a
posix thread created using pthread_create.

The name is set by assigning a value to pthread_attr.name before calling
pthread_create().

A patch to do this is attached. If this should be sent anywhere else, please
let me know...
