Detailed Description

KillableThreadActivity - a thread-based activity with timed join.

Extends rad::ThreadBaseActivity directly (parallel to rad::ThreadActivity) and provides a non-blocking JoinThread() using pthread_timedjoin_np.

If the activity thread does not terminate within a configurable timeout (default 2 seconds), it is detached and the SM is allowed to continue. This prevents a stuck activity (e.g. blocked on a remote endpoint) from freezing the entire state machine.
