[issue44434] _thread module: Remove redundant PyThread_exit_thread() call to avoid glibc fatal error: libgcc_s.so.1 must be installed for pthread_cancel to work

[STINNER Victor]

STINNER Victor <vstinner at python.org> added the comment:

Unix pthread_create() manual page.
https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/pthread_create.3.html

The new thread terminates in one of the following ways:

(...)
* It  returns  from start_routine().  This is equivalent to calling pthread_exit(3) with the value supplied in
         the return statement.
(...)

Calling pthread_exit(0) is optional.

MSDN _beginthreadex() documentation:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/c-runtime-library/reference/beginthread-beginthreadex?view=msvc-160

"When the thread returns from that routine, it is terminated automatically."

Calling _endthreadex(0) is optional.
