Improve concurrent.interpreters documentation

Documentation

We need a better documentation for https://docs.python.org/3/library/concurrent.interpreters.html

I tried this, but I don't understand

• how to use queue
• prepare_main purpose
• exec parameters like dedent
• I got funny crashes

從 docs.python.org/3/library/concurrent.interpreters.html 的 concurrent.interpreters 文件開始，並重現提供的範例。釐清佇列的使用方式、prepare_main、exec 的參數（例如 dedent），以及回報的當機問題；當文件透過一個可運作且易於理解的範例說明這些情況時，即表示完成。
