/** ThreadManager class
    
    This class manages a pool of threads.  It uses a ThreadFactory to create threads.  It never actually creates or destroys worker threads, rather
    it maintains statistics on number of idle threads, number of active threads, task backlog, and average wait and service times and informs the
    PoolPolicy object bound to instances of this manager of interesting transitions.  It is then up the PoolPolicy object to decide if the thread pool
    size needs to be adjusted and call this object addWorker and removeWorker methods to make changes.

    This design allows different policy implementations to used this code to handle basic worker thread management and worker task execution and focus on
    policy issues.  The simplest policy, StaticPolicy, does nothing other than create a fixed number of threads. */
