1. If threads are resized the threads' `ZSTD_pthread_t` might move while the worker still holds a pointer into it (see more details in #3120). 2. The join operation was waiting for a thread and then return its `thread.arg` as a return value, but since the `ZSTD_pthread_t thread` was passed by value it would have a stale `arg` that wouldn't match the thread's actual return value. This fix changes the `ZSTD_pthread_join` API and removes support for returning a value. This means that we are diverging from the `pthread_join` API and this is no longer just an alias. In the future, if needed, we could return a Windows thread's return value using `GetExitCodeThread`, but as this path wouldn't be excised in any case, it's preferable to not add it right now.
