* Create a new thread with a specific stack size.

*
* Thread naming is a little complicated: Most systems have very small limits
* for the string length (Haiku has 32 bytes, Linux currently has 16, Visual
* C++ 6.0 has _nine_!), and possibly other arbitrary rules. You'll have to
* see what happens with your system's debugger. The name should be UTF-8 (but
* using the naming limits of C identifiers is a better bet). There are no
* requirements for thread naming conventions, so long as the string is
* null-terminated UTF-8, but these guidelines are helpful in choosing a name:
*
* https://stackoverflow.com/questions/149932/naming-conventions-for-threads
*
* If a system imposes requirements, SDL will try to munge the string for it
* (truncate, etc), but the original string contents will be available from
* SDL_GetThreadName().
*
* The size (in bytes) of the new stack can be specified. Zero means "use the
* system default" which might be wildly different between platforms. x86
* Linux generally defaults to eight megabytes, an embedded device might be a
* few kilobytes instead. You generally need to specify a stack that is a
* multiple of the system's page size (in many cases, this is 4 kilobytes, but
* check your system documentation).
*
* In SDL 2.1, stack size will be folded into the original SDL_CreateThread
* function, but for backwards compatibility, this is currently a separate
* function.
