Python 3.9 breaks Plex Add-on
#1
I'm getting this error:

```
File "/var/lib/kodi/.kodi/addons/script.plex/lib/backgroundthread.py", line 129, in shutdown
    if self._thread and self._thread.isAlive():
AttributeError: 'KillableThread' object has no attribute 'isAlive'.
```

When using the plex for kodi addon. According to: https://github.com/plexinc/plex-for-kodi...ils.py#L32 a `KillableThread` inherits from `threading.Thread` which in python 3.9 does not have an `isAlive()` attribute. Instead it should be `is_alive()`. Is this a known issue?

It appears (at least based on the information in the addon.xml for that addon) that the Plex folks are doing support for that add-on in the Plex forums, so you might get a better response there.
