Pull request overview
This PR adds multi-threading support to the Python communications server, enabling concurrent access from multiple layer clients. Previously, the server handled connections serially; now each client connection runs in its own worker thread.
Key Changes:
- Converted server from single-threaded to multi-threaded architecture with one thread per client connection
- Refactored socket handling to pass
sockdas parameter instead of instance variable - Added worker thread pool management with proper cleanup on shutdown

This enables multiple layers to connect to the server and make use of host-side services.

This PR makes the Python server than runs on the host, providing services to layers, multi-threaded with a single thread per connected client layer. This allows multiple layers to use host-side services concurrently.
