windows线程消息通信和处理 PostThreadMessage和PeekMessage GetMessage

通过下面的代码我们会了解到：

1. 除了UI线程，普通的线程也可以接受其他线程发来的消息，并处理消息。寄送消息用PostThreadMessage，接受消息用GetMessage。
2. 消息发送到接收线程的message queue消息队列里面。这里要注意一点，线程一上来有时候还没来得及产生消息队列，发送线程调用PostThreadMessage会失败，发送线程可以售后再发，或者接受线程预先条用PeekMessage来强制产生消息队列。
3. 请类比win32或者mfc的消息处理过程，win32是主线程while循环接收并处理消息的。
