Pushed, after changing the comment to : "Move pthreadpool to top of the tree."

I agree this is comsmetic, but it really does help to re-arrange
the code in this way.

New programmers to Samba will now easily understand that the
pthreadpool implementation is a generic component we should
encourage use of in new code, not a smbd/Samba3-subsystem
specific library.

It does (IMHO) make our codebase a lot more friendly for
new developers to understand.
