[libmicrohttpd] Naming the libmicrohttpd threads

[Дилян Палаузов]

Hello,

as of libc 2.12, a process can name its threads with the 
pthread_setname_np() 
[http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/pthread_setname_np.3.html] 
function and see later with programs like htop the resources used by the 
named thread.

The patch below (the line is added just after pthread_create in 
daemon.c, whatever the line number is), names all threads, created by 
libmicrohttpd, as "libmicrohttpd".

I would appreciate, if this change gets incorporated.

Kind regards
  Дилян
