I am not sure if the complexity of flex-array is worth it.

You have been storing an up-to-24-byte human readable name by
embedding a strbuf that has two size_t plus a pointer (i.e. 24-bytes
even on Windows), and the posted patch changes it to a pointer plus
a on-heap allocation with malloc() overhead.

An embedded fixed-size thread_name[TR2_MAX_THREAD_NAME+1] member
may be the simplest thing to do, I suspect.
