David Lechner ffb43b2dd3 py/modthread: Return thread id from start_new_thread().
In CPython, `_thread.start_new_thread()` returns an ID that is the same ID
that is returned by `_thread.get_ident()`.  The current MicroPython
implementation of `_thread.start_new_thread()` always returns `None`.

This modifies the required functions to return a value. The native thread
id is returned since this can be used for interop with other functions, for
example, `pthread_kill()` on *nix. `_thread.get_ident()` is also modified
to return the native thread id so that the values match and avoids the need
for a separate `native_id` attribute.

Fixes issue #12153.

David Lechner 3dc324d3f1 tests: Format all Python code with black, except tests in basics subdir.
This adds the Python files in the tests/ directory to be formatted with
./tools/codeformat.py.  The basics/ subdirectory is excluded for now so we
aren't changing too much at once.

In a few places `# fmt: off`/`# fmt: on` was used where the code had
special formatting for readability or where the test was actually testing
the specific formatting.

Damien George 3545ef8bb4 tests/thread: Remove need to sleep to wait for completion in some tests.
Use a lock and a counter instead, and busy wait for all threads to
complete.  This makes test run faster and they no longer rely on the time
module.
