Threads are a positive integer (#366)
* Added new positive integer ns validation helper
* `run`, `exec`, and `spawn` verify threads as a positive integer.
* `run` terminal command also fails if the provided threadcount is not a positive integer.
* Removed some references to .script files in various documentation, and removed some of the NS1 example blocks

```
## Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description |

## Remarks
RAM cost: 0 GB
Allows Unix-like flag parsing.
## Example
```js
export async function main(ns) {
const data = ns.flags([
['delay', 0], // a default number means this flag is a number
['server', 'foodnstuff'], // a default string means this flag is a string
['exclude', []], // a default array means this flag is a default array of string
['help', false], // a default boolean means this flag is a boolean
]);
ns.tprint(data);
}
// [home ~/]> run example.js
// {"_":[],"delay":0,"server":"foodnstuff","exclude":[],"help":false}
// [home ~/]> run example.js --delay 3000
// {"_":[],"server":"foodnstuff","exclude":[],"help":false,"delay":3000}
// [home ~/]> run example.js --delay 3000 --server harakiri-sushi
// {"_":[],"exclude":[],"help":false,"delay":3000,"server":"harakiri-sushi"}
// [home ~/]> run example.js --delay 3000 --server harakiri-sushi hello world
// {"_":["hello","world"],"exclude":[],"help":false,"delay":3000,"server":"harakiri-sushi"}
// [home ~/]> run example.js --delay 3000 --server harakiri-sushi hello world --exclude a --exclude b
// {"_":["hello","world"],"help":false,"delay":3000,"server":"harakiri-sushi","exclude":["a","b"]}
// [home ~/]> run example.script --help
// {"_":[],"delay":0,"server":"foodnstuff","exclude":[],"help":true}
```
