Since the persistent server threads aren't joined, they must be created in
the DETACHED state or resources will not be cleaned up when they exit.
This results in pthread_create() failures after thousands of rping
instances are run against a persistent server.

Also check the return from all calls to pthread_create() so we don't
ignore a thread creation failure.
