moved the ThreadReap command to ::tcltest::threadReap. Now each thread test calls
threadReap at the beginning and end of the test, inside the test body. This fixes the problem where the test suite was exiting on a call to threadReap (reap was killing the main thread by accident because other tests were leaving threads running and setting mainthread to be the list of running threads).
