 * Example use:
 *  void* my_thread_main(void* arg);
 *  shared_ptr<ThreadFactory> factory = ...;
 *  // To create a thread that executes my_thread_main once:
 *  shared_ptr<Thread> thread = factory->newThread(

 *  thread->start();
 *
 *  bool A::foo();
 *  A* a = new A();
 *  // To create a thread that executes a.foo() every 100 milliseconds:
 *  factory->newThread(FunctionRunner::create(
 *    apache::thrift::stdcxx::bind(&A::foo, a), 100))->start();
