Currently, SCM_PIDFD carries a pidfd for the thread-group leader. A broker or the coredump server cannot learn the identity of the specific thread that sent a given message. Now that both struct pids are recorded a receiver can ask for the specific identity it needs. So add SO_PASSPIDFD_THREAD as a sibling of SO_PASSPIDFD. SO_PASSPIDFD_THREAD delivers an SCM_PIDFD_THREAD, i.e. scoped to the specific thread sending. This is completely independent of SO_PASSPIDFD, meaning you can use both options and get both cmsgs. On SOCK_STREAM sockets recvmsg() only stops merging data at a thread boundary when the receiver asked for a thread pidfd. For SO_PASSCRED and SO_PASSPIDFD receivers all threads of one process remain a single writer.
