This fix sandwitches new blocking functions between THREAD_PAUSED/THREAD_RESUMED macros for application specific thread watchdog.
The application sets the SRT THREAD_XXX() macros to implement a thread watchdog. new blocking functions were added in the development toward 1.5.0 causing the thread watchdog to detect stalled threads that were legitimately blocked on event or timer and not gone wild in an infinite loop or slow callback.
By default the THREAD_XXX() macros are not defined so unless added in a multi-lines if or loop construction with no braces they can do no harm to most applications.
