Corinna Vinschen b79b0c2bae Cygwin: cygthread: set thread name before calling thread func
When reusing a cygthread, the stub method fails to set the thread name
to the new name.  The name is only set when actually creating the
thread.  Fix that by moving the SetThreadName call right in front of the
thread function call.

What's new:
-----------
- Support for CLOCK_REALTIME_COARSE, CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE,
CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW, CLOCK_BOOTTIME, CLOCK_REALTIME_ALARM,
CLOCK_BOOTTIME_ALARM clocks.
- Support for case sensitive directories. mkdir(2) automatically
creates directories within the Cygwin installation dir as case
sensitive now.
This feature requires Windows 10 1803 or later and WSL installed!
- New file ioctls's FS_IOC_GETFLAGS and FS_IOC_SETFLAGS. The actual
inode flags are Cygwin-specific. This allows to set or reset
DOS attributes, file sparseness, FS level encryption and compression,
as well as directory case sensitivity programatically.
- New tools chattr(1) and lsattr(1) to utilize setting and viewing the
aforementioned new ioctl's on the command line.
- Support for exFAT.
- Support Linux-specific open(2) flag O_PATH.
- Support Linux-specific linkat(2) flag AT_EMPTY_PATH.
- Support overrun counter for posix timers (via timer_getoverrun() or
siginfo_t::si_overrun).
- New APIs: signalfd, timerfd_create, timerfd_gettime, timerfd_settime,
timer_getoverrun.
What changed:
-------------
- clock_nanosleep, pthread_condattr_setclock and timer_create now support
all clocks, except CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID and CLOCK_THREAD_CPUTIME_ID.
- clock_setres is a no-op now.
- Use the new POSIX unlink semantics on NTFS starting with Windows 10 1709.
Deleting an in-use file now actually removes the file, rather than moving
it to the recycler bin.
- Use the new POSIX rename semantics on NTFS starting with Windows 10 1809.
Renaming a file to another in-use file now actually removes the other file,
rather than moving it to the recycler bin.
- open(..., O_TMPFILE) now moves the file to the trash bin immediately,
to free the parent directory.
- Wctype functions updated to Unicode 11.0.
- Remove matherr, and SVID and X/Open math library configurations.
Default math library configuration is now IEEE.
