lib/thread: Make thread_run not block the current state
If a thread wants to block a state transition it can use thread_run_until. Otherwise just let the thread run. `thread_join` can be used to block on the thread. Boot states are also a ramstage concept. If we want to use this API in any other stage, we need a way of starting a thread without talking about stages. BUG=b:179699789 TEST=verify thread_run no longer blocks the current state Signed-off-by: Raul E Rangel <rrangel@chromium.org> Change-Id: I3e5b0aed70385ddcd23ffcf7b063f8ccb547fc05 Reviewed-on: https://review.coreboot.org/c/coreboot/+/56351 Reviewed-by: Karthik Ramasubramanian <kramasub@google.com> Reviewed-by: Furquan Shaikh <furquan@google.com> Reviewed-by: Julius Werner <jwerner@chromium.org> Tested-by: build bot (Jenkins) <no-reply@coreboot.org>
