Windows threads only have a name if the debuggee calls 
[`SetThreadDescription`](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/processthreadsapi/nf-processthreadsapi-setthreaddescription).
 When running with lldb-server.exe, that name is currently synthesised to the 
executable's name.

This patch drops this synthesised name mechanism entirely to match the current 
`ProcessWindows` behavior (which does not print a thread's name). It fixes the 
following tests when running with `LLDB_USE_LLDB_SERVER=1`.

- `SymbolFile/NativePDB/stack_unwinding01.cpp`
- `SymbolFile/PDB/add-symbols.cpp`
