Thread Local Storage

The header file <CGAL/tss.h> provides a macro CGAL_STATIC_THREAD_LOCAL_VARIABLE(TYPE,VAR,ARG1) that creates a thread local variable VAR of type TYPE, and passes ARG1 to the constructor. The variable is either thread_local, or just a local variable if CGAL_HAS_THREADS is not defined.
