This is a first in a series of commits, whose goal is to rename
the thread system in FRR to an event system. There is a continual
problem where people are confusing `struct thread` with a true
pthread. In reality, our entire thread.c is an event system.
In this commit rename the thread.[ch] files to event.[ch].

Back when I put this together in 2015, ISO C11 was still reasonably new
and we couldn't require it just yet. Without ISO C11, there is no
"good" way (only bad hacks) to require a semicolon after a macro that
ends with a function definition. And if you added one anyway, you'd get
"spurious semicolon" warnings on some compilers...
With C11, `_Static_assert()` at the end of a macro will make it so that
the semicolon is properly required, consumed, and not warned about.
Consistently requiring semicolons after "file-level" macros matches
Linux kernel coding style and helps some editors against mis-syntax'ing
these macros.

Replace all lib/thread cancel macros, use thread_cancel()
everywhere. Only the THREAD_OFF macro and thread_cancel() api are
supported. Also adjust thread_cancel_async() to NULL caller's pointer (if
present).

We have this pattern in the code base:
if (thread)
THREAD_OFF(thread);
If we look at THREAD_OFF we check to see if thread
is non-null too. So we have a double check.
This is unnecessary. Convert to just using THREAD_OFF
