Start a pool of a limited number of threads to do some work.
This is similar to the stdlib concurrent, but I could not find
how to reach all my design goals with that implementation:
* the input function does not need to be modified
* limit the number of threads
* queue sizes closely follow number of threads
* if an exception happens, optionally stop soon afterwards
This class form allows to use your own while loops with submit().
Exit soon after the first failure happens:
....
python3 thread_pool.py 2 -10 20 handle_output_print

Sample output:

return 10.0 / i
ZeroDivisionError: float division by zero

....
Don't exit after first failure, run until end:
....
python3 thread_pool.py 2 -10 20 handle_output_print_no_exit
....
Store results in a queue for later inspection instead of printing immediately,
then print everything at the end:

python3 thread_pool.py 2 -10 20 handle_output_queue

Exit soon after the handle_output raise.
....
python3 thread_pool.py 2 -10 20 handle_output_raise

Relying on this interface to abort execution is discouraged, this should
usually only happen due to a programming error in the handler.
Test that the argument called "thread_id" is passed to work_function and printed:
....
python3 thread_pool.py 2 -10 20 handle_output_print thread_id
....
Test with, ThreadPoolExitException and submit_raise_exit=True, same behaviour handle_output_print
except for the different exit cause report:

work_function_exception: Exception

....
where work_function_exception the exception that work_function raised,
or None otherwise
The first non-None return value of a call to this function is returned by
submit(), get_handle_output_result() and join().
The intended semantic for this, is to return:
* on success:
** None to continue execution
** ThreadPoolExitException() to request stop execution
* if work_function_input or work_function_exception raise:
** the exception raised
The ThreadPool user can then optionally terminate execution early on error
or request with either:
* an explicit submit() return value check + break if a submit loop is used
* `with` + submit_raise_exit=True
Default: a handler that just returns `exception`, which can normally be used
by the submit loop to detect an error and exit immediately.
:param nthreads: number of threads to use. Default: nproc.
:param thread_id_arg: if not None, set the argument of work_function with this name
to a 0-indexed thread ID. This allows function calls to coordinate
usage of external resources such as files or ports.

get_handle_output_result() is not None.
