library: eliminate a useless conditional in readproc.h

Browse Source 
When #define QUICK_THREADS was introduced, for copying
some task data for a child thread, one proc_t pad byte
was used to mark, then later identify, those children.

Later the QUICK_THREADS was recycled as FALSE_THREADS,
and used for a different purpose, but a conditional in
the header file erroneously remained. Now, it is gone!

Reference(s):
. Jul, 2016 - QUICK_THREADS become FALSE_THREADS
commit c546d9dd4409ee11cd466c99a820a3b5dadfe3f4
. Aug, 2011 - QUICK_THREADS intruduced
commit bb4f08ba297a67a043f7547670aa8623b54c2e67
