416895b5b2 Library: prepare switch of Thread-wrapper to C++17
The investigation for #1279 leads to the following conclusions

- the features and the design of our custom thread-wrapper
  almost entirely matches the design chosen meanwhile by the C++ committee

- the implementation provided by the standard library however uses
  modern techniques (especially Atomics) and is more precisely worked out
  than our custom implementation was.

- we do not need an *active* threadpool with work-assignment,
  rather we'll use *active* workers and a *passive* pool,
  which was easy to implement based on C++17 features

==> decision to drop our POSIX based custom implementation
    and to retrofit the Thread-wrapper as a drop-in replacement

+++ start this refactoring by moving code into the Library
+++ create a copy of the Threadwrapper-code to build and test
    the refactorings while the application itself still uses
    existing code, until the transition is complete
