rS339486: ddb: Enable 'thread <address>'
Summary

Prior to this change, the 'thread' command (to switch the debugger to another
thread) only accepts decimal-encoded tids. This is a minor nuisance and
sometimes stumbling block.

Use the same parsing logic as 'show thread <arg>' to enable 'thread' to accept
hex-encoded thread pointers in addition to decimal-encoded tids.

Test Plan

Untested other than compile. Will confirm before committing.

Does ddb.4 need to be updated?

I think man page does need to be updated as markj said.

Document 'thread' (entirely absent) and 'show thread' tid behavior.
