Jean Boussier 9ca41e9991 GVL Instrumentation: pass thread->self as part of event data ...

Context: https://github.com/ivoanjo/gvl-tracing/pull/4

Some hooks may want to collect data on a per thread basis.
Right now the only way to identify the concerned thread is to
use `rb_nativethread_self()` or similar, but even then because
of the thread cache or MaNy, two distinct Ruby threads may report
the same native thread id.

By passing `thread->self`, hooks can use it as a key to store
the metadata.

NB: Most hooks are executed outside the GVL, so such data collection
need to use a thread-safe data-structure, and shouldn't use the
reference in other ways from inside the hook.

They must also either pin that value or handle compaction.
