Switch tee from threading.Thread to sync.WorkGroup

The reason is that with threading.Thread if exception happens in that
spawned thread, this error is not propagated to main driver, while with
sync.WorkGroup an exception from any spawned worker is propagated back
to main. For example with the following injected error

Here the error in another thread is only printed, but nxdtest is not aborted.
Above it reported "error", but e.g. when testing pygolang/py3 and raising an
error in tee it even reported it was succeeding

NOTE sync.WorkGroup requires every worker to handle context cancellation, so
that whenever there is an error, all other workers are canceled. We add such
cancellation handling to tee but only lightly: before going to block in
read/write syscalls we check for whether ctx is canceled or not. However the
proper handling would be to switch file descriptors into non-block mode and to
select at every IO point on both potential IO events and potential
cancellation. This is left as TODO for the future.
