Subject: per-thread rusage

It is not now possible for a thread to retrieve its own rusage in
isolation. Its rusage is nowhere exposed without being intermixed with
that of its sibling threads. This patch adds support for an
RUSAGE_THREAD who argument that returns rusage for only the desired
thread.

Untested.
