Subject: [PATCH] thread: do not attempt to join detached threads in
pthread_join()
A thread which is detached releases it's resources and TCB upon thread termination.
Therefore a thread which is detached is not joinable as any underlying futex will not
be incremented, resulting in a deadlock. Accordingly, POSIX defines calling
pthread_join() on a detached thread as undefined behaviour.
We attempt, where possible, to detect attempts to join detached threads and crash
instead, to bring the undefined behaviour to the programmer's attention.
