A pool within a bigger pool (ie the ocean). Here, we're talking about
pools of `Thread.t` which live within a fixed pool of `Domain.t`.
This fixed pool of domains is shared between *all* the pools in moonpool.
The rationale is that we should not have more domains than cores, so
it's easier to pre-allocate exactly that many domains, and run more flexible
thread pools on top.
In addition, `Moonpool.Fut` provides futures/promises that execute
on these thread pools. The futures are thread safe.
## Usage
The user can create several thread pools. These pools use regular posix threads,
