Comment:

 Make the ThumbGenerator thread actually abort

 When you exit mythgallery, it deletes the ThumbGenerator, which causes it
 to
 wait for completion.  As the inner code was never checking for an abort,
 sometimes this would take a very long time, especially when dealing with
 RAW format pictures.

 Now, when cancel() is called, a flag is set that is checked in the inner
 loops to cause a more immediate exit.
