Add a new thread.reset-on-fork property for the thread creator. when set
to false, it will clear the default SCHED_RESET_ON_FORK flag and new RT
threads will be able to fork and inherit the rt policy and priority.
When creating a thread make sure we set SCHED_RESET_ON_FORK when the
thread.reset-on-fork property is not explicitly false;
module-rt needs to preserve the SCHED_RESET_ON_FORK flag when changing
the policy.
Set thread.reset-on-fork=false explicitly for JACK clients to restore
the JACK behaviour where implementations can fork and inherit the RT
policy and priority by default.

Including C headers inside of `extern "C"` breaks use from C++. Hoist
the includes of standard C headers above the block so we don't try
to mangle the stdlib.
I initially tried to scope this with a targeted change but it's too
hard to do correctly that way. This way, we avoid whack-a-mole.

Bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/1953080
Make a property to pass a custom function pointer to create threads
instead of pthread_create.
Use this in jack instead of bypassing the thread utils create function,
which gives the wrong thread rt priority with rtkit.
Fixes#4099
Make helper method to parse thread properties and add 2 new properties
to control name and stack-size of the thread.
Use properties when creating threads with the default utils.
Use the default thread utils instead of pthread_create so that the
properties are used.
The Doxygen "Modules" page is not very illuminative, as different parts
of the API are mixed together and not all parts are included.
Try to address this:
Put all parts of the public API to some Doxygen group, usually one group
per header file. Use short, systematic names.
Make these groups sub-groups of a few top-level groups, roughly
corresponding to the different logical parts of the API (core, impl,
stream, filter, spa, utilities).
