Let's the common function for querying the local thread name. This changes the escaping rules when the therad name is not quite kosher: previously we'd just escape invalid UTF-8 charcaters, now we do what we usually do: also escape control characters and such, and limit us to ASCII. The description generated here is mostly for debug purposes, and process names should normally not require this escaping anyway (it's mostly paranoia), hence I think this change in behaviour should be fine, it's not part of the API in any form.
