       It is fairly common to write tests that need to use threads. Not all systems support threads. This
       library does the hard work of checking if threading is supported on the current system. If threading is
       not supported then this will skip all tests and exit true.

       Checking if the current system supports threading is not simple, here is an example of how to do it:

           use Config;

           sub CAN_THREAD {
               # Threads are not reliable before 5.008001
               return 0 unless $] >= 5.008001;
               return 0 unless $Config{'useithreads'};

               # Devel::Cover currently breaks with threads
               return 0 if $INC{'Devel/Cover.pm'};
               return 1;
           }

       Duplicating this non-trivial code in all tests that need to use threads is error-prone. It is easy to
       forget bits, or get it wrong. On top of these checks you also need to tell the harness that no tests
       should run and why.

       Test2::Require::Fork
           Skip the test file if the system does not support forking.

       Test2
           Test2::Require::Threads uses Test2 under the hood.
