pthread: introduce pthread_setname_np() as a mean to give names to threads
... so that each cloned process at the kernel level can be named
independently. Tools like 'top' can display the CPU/memory statistics
for each process's thread if "Show Threads" mode is on.
With this function in place, we can convert dalvik/Thread.c setThreadName()
function over this function. This feature ought to be provided by the
underlying C library and not coded directly in Dalvik.
