The goal is to improve responsiveness of qbt when CPU resources are scarce. Instead of lowering libtorrent threads priority, it is chosen to raise main event loop thread priority to avoid getting messy with libtorrent internals. Also on Windows, threads doesn't inherit thread priority from the parent thread and it always use the default (normal) priority. PR #17278.
