* @brief Lowers the priority of the current thread.
*
* @details It's used by worker threads so that they use up the background CPU and do not stall
* the main thread. If the current thread is running with real-time priority, we
* decrease our priority by @c RTNICENESS. This is done in a portable way.
*
* Otherwise, (we are running with the SCHED_OTHER policy) there's no portable way to
* set the nice level on the current thread. In Linux, it does work and it's the
* only one that is implemented as of now. In this case, the nice level is
* incremented on this thread by @c NICENESS.
