perf test: Add named_threads workload
Add a workload that runs X threads that run a unique function named "named_threads_thread[x]" which performs a multiplication in a loop for Y loops. Each thread sets its name to "thread[x]". This can be used to test that processor trace decoding handles concurrent threads correctly and the correct symbols and thread names are assigned to samples.
