Be defensive when working with potentially unitialized thread structures

[jbachorik]

What does this PR do?:
Make the code poking in the thread internals more resilient not to crash on unexpected states. Also, fall back to a different mode of retrieving the native thread id where it makes sense.

For Datadog employees:

• If this PR touches code that signs or publishes builds or packages, or handles
  credentials of any kind, I've requested a review from @DataDog/security-design-and-guidance.
• This PR doesn't touch any of that.
• JIRA: PROF-9543
