optimize pthread termination in the non-detached case
we can avoid blocking signals by simply using a flag to mark that the
thread has exited and prevent it from getting counted in the rsyscall
signal-pingpong. this restores the original pthread create/join
throughput from before the sigprocmask call was added.
