Thread: Add name parameter

For debugging purposes, threads can be assigned a name, which eases
distinguishing between them in e.g. htop or gdb. This uses a
Linux-specific API for now which is limited to 15 characters (+ null
terminator), so truncation is done and names for existing thread
instantiations were chosen to be consise.
