Change debugserver from using the mach port number (in debugserver's

own port namepsace) as the thread identifier to using the system-wide
globally unique thread id as the thread identifier number.

MachThread.cpp keeps both the unique id and the mach port number
for each thread.  All layers outside MachThread class use the unique
id with three exceptions: (1) Mach exceptions come in with the port
number (thread_port) which needs to be translated, (2) any calls to
low-level thread_get_state/thread_set_state/thread_suspend etc need
to use the mach port number, (3) MachThreadList::UpdateThreadList 
which creates the MachThread objects gets the unique id and passes
it to the MachThread ctor as an argument.

In general, any time nub_thread_t is used, it is now referring to a
unique thread id.  Any time a thread_t is used, it is now referring
to a mach port number.  There was some interchangability of these 
types previously.  nub_thread_t has also been changed to a 64-bit
type which necessitated some printf specification string changes.

I haven't been able to test these changes extensively yet but want
to checkpoint the work.  The scenarios I've been testing are all
working correctly so while there may be some corner cases I haven't
hit yet, I think it is substantially correct.
