Don't need to truncate thread names to 15 chars on Apple platforms.

[alecazam]

The 15 character limit is an archaic limitation of Linux/Android, and not macOS/iOS. So the name here doesn't need truncated in TaskSystem.cpp

#elif (defined _GNU_SOURCE || defined __clang__) && !defined __EMSCRIPTEN__
    {
#if defined __APPLE__
		pthread_setname_np( name );
#else
		// only linux/android have a 15 char name limit
		const auto sz = strlen( name );
        if( sz <= 15 )
        {
            pthread_setname_np( pthread_self(), name );
        }
        else
        {
            char buf[16];
            memcpy( buf, name, 15 );
            buf[15] = '\0';
            pthread_setname_np( pthread_self(), buf );
        }
#endif
    }

Please provide a reference to documentation that supports this claim.

Not sure what docs you expect. This stuff is rarely documented. macOS is 64 chars at least. Also the tracy thread names are > 15 and get truncated always. Seeing "Tracy Compress Wo" is not ideal. These should be shortened.

Also the macOS build GetThreadName doesn't return anything but an id. Code would look something like the following. The call needs a pthread ptr, and int (32-bit) won't hold that. I'm hoping that the thread name table returns valid names and so this code isn't needed.

TRACY_API const char* GetThreadName( uint32_t id )
{
#elif defined __APPLE__
       static char nameBuf[63 + 1] = {0};
	if (pthread_getname_np(static_cast<pthread_t*>(id), nameBuf, 63) == 0) {
		return nameBuf;
	};
}
