NewThread

Create a real additional AutoHotkey thread in current process using Thread Local Storage (without using AutoHotkey.dll).
The main difference to AutoHotkey.dll thread is that a TLS thread shares the hook between all threads and uses one pool of Hotkeys and Hotstrings, so if you have same hotkey in main thread and TLS thread you will get a duplicate Hotkey error.
