What
Enhance thread_system documentation with tutorials, expanded examples, FAQ, and troubleshooting guide for external developers.
Why
thread_system has 19 example directories but lacks guided tutorials explaining when and how to choose between thread pool types, queue implementations, and scheduling strategies. External developers need decision guides and step-by-step walkthroughs.
