tests: Emulate multithreading environment for unit tests

The main purpose of this patch is to run unit tests on BSD family
of OSes. The root cause is `fileno` syscall which is a macro that
can be expanded to either a function call (for multi-threaded
environment) or to inline code (for single-threaded environment).
Said inline code accesses private field of file descriptor, and
this construction is impossible to mock in unit tests. Multi-
threaded environment has `fileno` as a function, which can be
mocked in unit tests.

On other OSes the patch just creates a thread which is doing nothing.
We avoid adding pre-processor conditionals since the cost is small.

Tested on
FreeBSD 13.1-RELEASE-p6 GENERIC amd64
NetBSD 9.2 (GENERIC) amd64
OpenBSD 7.2 GENERIC#7 amd64
[WIP] DragonFly v6.4.0-RELEASE x86_64
Ubuntu 22.04.1 x86_64
