Name threads (#7879)

I noticed that [it's pretty easy to name threads in
Rust](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/thread/#naming-threads). We might as
well do this; it's a nice quality of life improvement when you're
profiling something and the developers took the time to give threads
names.

Also added/cleaned up some comments while I was in the area.
