If you use the instance variable directly, we will need a mutex inside the 
HostNativeThreadBase class to protect against multi-threaded access. I believe 
the reason it was being copied before was in case the Reset was called on 
another thread. So we might want a mutex in HostNativeThreadBase that gets 
exposed via HostThread. See inlined comments.

----------------
If you are going to do IsJoinable(), Cancel(), and Join() then this is still 
racy in that someone else could do the same thing on another thread. So this 
code should probably take a mutex to protect:

```
Mutex::Locker locker(m_private_state_thread.GetMutex());
if (m_private_state_thread.IsJoinable())
```

This would need to live in HostNativeThreadBase because HostThread contains a 
shared pointer to a HostNativeThreadBase and HostThread can be copied.
