Previously, osal_thread_create checked the wrong handle value, so thread creation failures were reported as success. Also, osal_thread_create_rt passed the handle pointer instead of the thread HANDLE to SetThreadPriority, so real-time priority was never applied. Fixes #977

SOEM (Simple Open EtherCAT Master) is a software library for developing EtherCAT MainDevices.
This library is specifically designed for real-time communication in embedded systems. Its lightweight architecture minimizes resource consumption, making it suitable for environments with limited resources. SOEM can also be utilized on both Linux and Windows systems.
As a library rather than a standalone application, SOEM provides flexibility and customization for developers looking to implement EtherCAT technology.
