configure: Allow disabling pthreads, fall back on Win32 threads
When the threaded resolver option is specified for configure the default thread library is pthreads. This change makes it possible to --disable-pthreads and then configure can fall back on Win32 threads for native Windows builds. Closes https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/1260
