MFC r224047:
Remove note that claims pthread_set_name_np is for debugging only.
As Garrett points out,
It is no more a debugging interface than setproctitle(3), and has not
been since the name started getting stuffed into the kernel. This
statement may have made sense when the name was only visible in thread
state dumps and the debugger.
