Use std::jthread for background threads

[Shillaker]

We can use std::jthread with a stop_token:

#include <thread>
#include <iostream>
 
using namespace std::literals::chrono_literals;
 
void f(std::stop_token stop_token, int value)
{
    while (!stop_token.stop_requested()) {
        std::cout << value++ << ' ' << std::flush;
        std::this_thread::sleep_for(200ms);
    }
    std::cout << std::endl;
}
 
int main()
{
    std::jthread thread(f, 5); // prints 5 6 7 8... for approximately 3 seconds
    std::this_thread::sleep_for(3s);
    // The destructor of jthread calls request_stop() and join().
}
