Only call thread-local destructors on DLL_THREAD_DETACH.

In VS2015's debug runtime, the C runtime has been unloaded by the time
DLL_PROCESS_DETACH is called and things crash. Instead, don't run destructors
at that point.

This means we do *not* free memory associated with any remaining thread-locals
on application shutdown, only shutdown of individual threads. This is actually
desirable since it's consistent with pthreads. If an individual thread calls
pthread_exit, destructors are run. If the entire process exits, they are not.

(It's also consistent with thread_none.c which never bothers to free
anything.)

BoringSSL

BoringSSL is a fork of OpenSSL that is designed to meet Google's needs.

Although BoringSSL is an open source project, it is not intended for general use, as OpenSSL is. We don't recommend that third parties depend upon it. Doing so is likely to be frustrating because there are no guarantees of API or ABI stability.

Programs ship their own copies of BoringSSL when they use it and we update everything as needed when deciding to make API changes. This allows us to mostly avoid compromises in the name of compatibility. It works for us, but it may not work for you.

BoringSSL arose because Google used OpenSSL for many years in various ways and, over time, built up a large number of patches that were maintained while tracking upstream OpenSSL. As Google's product portfolio became more complex, more copies of OpenSSL sprung up and the effort involved in maintaining all these patches in multiple places was growing steadily.

Currently BoringSSL is the SSL library in Chrome/Chromium, Android (but it's not part of the NDK) and a number of other apps/programs.
