#1290 set the pthread name for all threads that are used by pika, including the main thread. Since we don't create or "own" the main thread, this PR removes setting the name for the main thread. E.g. in GDB the main thread will simply inherit the name of the binary, which I think is a lot more accurate.
For example,
hello_world
inpika_main
