By default, inherit the context from the thread calling Thread.start().

This was motivated by making the warnings module work more reliably when threads and asyncio are used in combination with catch_warnings. I'm working on a PR that will make warnings use a contextvar for the filtering state.

This is not a new idea, it was suggested around the 3.10 release timeframe, gh-86981.
