lib/pthreadpool: fix a memory leak
When copying large files from the server to the client with aio enabled we noticed that smbd kept growing RSS and VSZ. valgrind was reporting: ==2503== 4,093,440 bytes in 6,560 blocks are possibly lost in loss record 460 of 460 ==2503== at 0x4C299CE: calloc (vg_replace_malloc.c:711) ==2503== by 0x4011C24: _dl_allocate_tls (in /usr/lib64/ld-2.17.so) ==2503== by 0x4E3C960: pthread_create@@GLIBC_2.2.5 (in /usr/lib64/libpthread-2.17.so) ==2503== by 0x9B298AE: pthreadpool_add_job (in /usr/lib64/samba/libmessages-dgm-samba4.so) ==2503== by 0x9B29FDC: pthreadpool_tevent_job_send (in /usr/lib64/samba/libmessages-dgm-samba4.so) ==2503== by 0x56A78EF: ???

(in /usr/lib64/samba/libtevent.so.0.9.31) The problem seems to be caused by worked threads that are not properly started in detached state and thus their tls is not reclaimed upon thread termination. In pthreadpool.c we prepare a pthread attribute with PTHREAD_CREATE_DETACHED, but we don't pass it to pthread_create().
