Purpose: libavutil/thread.h: Fixed g++ build error when ASSERT_LEVEL
is greater than 1. This is only relevant when thread.h is included by
C++ files. In this case, the relevant code is only defined if
HAVE_PTHREADS is defined as 1. Use configure --assert-level=2 to do
so.
Note: Issue discovered as a result of Coverity build failure. Cause
of build failure pinpointed by Hendrik Leppkes.
Comments:
-- libavutil/thread.h: Altered ASSERT_PTHREAD_NORET definition such
that it uses av_make_error_string instead of av_err2str().
av_err2str() uses a "parenthesized type followed by an initializer
list", which is apparently not valid C++. This issue started
occurring because thread.h is now included by the DeckLink C++
files. The alteration does the equivalent of what av_err2str()
does, but instead declares the character buffer as a local
variable.

USE_ATOMICS is only set if there is no thread implementation enabled, in
which case you can't expect any lock mechanism from FFmpeg.
This is also conflicting with the incoming use of stdatomic.
Also add no-op fallbacks when threading is disabled.
This helps keeping the code clean if Libav is compiled for targets
without threading. Since we assume that no threads of any kind are used
in such configurations, doing nothing is ok by definition.
