DeprecationWarning: currentThread() => current_thread(), getName() => name #11

Hello,

We are getting the following DeprecationWarnings when using this library with a very recent python:

/home/localuser/workspace/pyapp/dependencies/lib/python3.10/site-packages/robotbackgroundlogger.py:83: DeprecationWarning: currentThread() is deprecated, use current_thread() instead
/home/localuser/workspace/pyapp/dependencies/lib/python3.10/site-packages/robotbackgroundlogger.py:83: DeprecationWarning: getName() is deprecated, get the name attribute instead

I noticed both methods have a replacement since python 2.6: https://docs.python.org/2.7/library/threading.html

threading.current_thread()
threading.currentThread()

[...snip...]

Changed in version 2.6: Added current_thread() spelling.

name
[...snip...]
New in version 2.6.

getName()
setName()

Pre-2.6 API for name.

I noticed there was a revert circa 2014 to use the pre 2.6 APIs: e880289

Is it possible to fix these DeprecationWarnings if supporting Python 2.5 is no longer a goal?
I can submit a PR if this is possible.

Thanks a lot!
