For debugging purpose, it would sometimes be useful if all the dozens of threads
running in an ordinary OOo process would be distinguishable, to a higher degree
than they are currently.

For this, given a thread a name would be pretty handy - client code which starts
a thread for a given purpose could express this purpose in the thread's name.

I know that Windows supports naming threads, I don't know about other platforms.

The to-be-attached patch introduces a osl_setThreadName function, returning a
sal_Bool for success, implemented for Win32 at the moment, not implemented (i.e.
returning sal_False) for the other platforms.

I am well aware that this is a debug-only feature, nonetheless I think it could
be justified to add this function to sal's official API.
