From: Narcisa Vasile <navas...@microsoft.com>

Add functions for thread creation, joining, detaching.

The *rte_thread_create()* function can optionally receive
an rte_thread_attr_t object that will cause the thread to be
created with the affinity and priority described by the
attributes object. If no rte_thread_attr_t is passed (parameter is NULL),
the default affinity and priority are used.

On Windows, the function executed by a thread when the thread starts is
represeneted by a function pointer of type DWORD (*func) (void*).
On other platforms, the function pointer is a void* (*func) (void*).

Performing a cast between these two types of function pointers to
uniformize the API on all platforms may result in undefined behavior.
TO fix this issue, a wrapper that respects the signature required by
CreateThread() has been created on Windows.

Add unit tests:
 - verify rte_thread_self() correctly retrieves the thread id.
 - verify that affinity and priority can be set successfully.
 - verify that threads are created and cleaned up correctly.
