// diameter - outside diameter of threads in mm. Default: 8.
// pitch - thread axial "travel" per turn in mm. Default: 1.
// length - overall axial length of thread in mm. Default: 1.
// internal - true = clearances for internal thread (e.g., a nut).
// false = clearances for external thread (e.g., a bolt).
// (Internal threads should be "cut out" from a solid using
// difference ()).
// n_starts - Number of thread starts (e.g., DNA, a "double helix," has
// n_starts=2). See wikipedia Screw_thread.
// thread_size - (non-standard) axial width of a single thread "V" - independent
// of pitch. Default: same as pitch.
// groove - (non-standard) subtract inverted "V" from cylinder (rather than
// add protruding "V" to cylinder).
// square - Square threads (per
// https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square_thread_form).
// rectangle - (non-standard) "Rectangular" thread - ratio depth/(axial) width
// Default: 1 (square).
// angle - (non-standard) angle (deg) of thread side from perpendicular to
// axis (default = standard = 30 degrees).
// taper - diameter change per length (National Pipe Thread/ANSI B1.20.1
// is 1" diameter per 16" length). Taper decreases from 'diameter'
// as z increases.
