/**
* Thread Auditor class:
* - Provides a mechanism for applications to check the health of internal threads
* - The mechanism is fairly simple:
* - Threads register with the auditor at startup and "ping" the auditor every so often.
* - The application queries the auditor about the health of the system periodically. The
* auditor reports if the threads are healthy or if any of them failed to ping and are
* considered dead or stuck.
* - The main implication for the monitored threads is that they can no longer block
* waiting for an event forever. Any wait() must be implemented with a timeout so that
* the thread can periodically ping the auditor.
*
* This code is in the public domain.
