improve design of thread-start with explicit scheduling attributes
eliminate the awkward startlock mechanism and corresponding fields of the pthread structure that were only used at startup. instead of having pthread_create perform the scheduling operations and having the new thread wait for them to be completed, start the new thread with a wrapper start function that performs its own scheduling, sending the result code back via a futex. this way the new thread can use storage from the calling thread's stack rather than permanent fields in the pthread structure.
