threadid() and nthreads() usage

[cormullion]

From this blog post we read that:

Any usage of threadid() in package or user code should be seen as a warning sign that the code is relying on implementation details, and is open to concurrency bugs.

In Luxor threadid() does appear a few times:

• Luxor.jl/src/drawings.jl

  Line 90 in 18d96c8

  id = Threads.threadid()

• Luxor.jl/src/basics.jl

  Line 553 in 18d96c8

  id = Threads.threadid()

so there might be the possibility of issues and/or bugs.

Oops, we ought to think this through. I have used the thread features some on Julia 1.9 and did not notice any issues.

Is this still relevant? If so, what is blocking it? Is there anything you can do to help move it forward?
