[jboss-as7-dev] Removing thread subsystem

[David M. Lloyd]

We need to migrate this thread config into the web subsystem somehow, 
maybe for the next rev of the subsystem, in place of the executor 
option.  I'll add that as a task to the JIRA.

Either way we definitely won't remove anything... not for a very long 
time anyway...
