Improve debugging of thread and other leaks

- Add basethread.BaseThread that all threads outside of test suites should use
- Add a signal handler to mitmproxy, mitmdump and mitmweb that dumps resource
information to screen when SIGUSR1 is received.
- Improve thread naming throughout to make thread dumps understandable
