The calibration utilities attempt to bump the transmit thread priority to realtime to prevent underruns. However, on platforms that use pthread, `pthread_setschedparam()` typically requires elevated privileges. When called without those privileges, the code path throws an exception that is left unhandled, thus terminating the process with an unhelpful error message. This commit changes the thread priority function call to use a safe version which catches any exceptions thrown by `pthread_setschedparam()` and prints a much more instructive error message without terminating the process. This gives the user a fighting chance to correct the issue and successfully use the calibration utilities.
