Tries to fix #973.
If I understand correctly, the reason for using threads here is to optimize the destructor, but the cost of spawning threads is usually too high. I tried to measure the execution time of this destructor and got 400µs. If we use one thread to shutdown all runtimes this actually drops (pun intended) down to 20µs. And it resolves the above panic. This is what the pull request does, in addition to decreasing the shutdown timeout to 1ms. The shutdown threads are used because one supposedly cannot callshutdown_timeout()
from the same thread that was used to create the runtime.
