Description

As shown in https://github.com/JuliaImages/Images.jl/issues/721 some of the tests assume that julia is run with export JULIA_NUM_THREADS=1.

We should either make the tests work with any number of threads, or alternatively throw more informative error messages when those tests fail.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the test suite and the behavior described in JuliaImages/Images.jl#721. Determine which tests assume Threads.nthreads() == 1, then make them pass with other thread counts or provide informative failure messages; done means the affected tests behave clearly under different Julia thread settings.
