// ConditionVariable
//
// This class is a synchronization primitive that can be used to block a thread,
// or multiple threads at the same time, until:
// - a notification is received from another thread,
// - a timeout expires, or
// - a spurious wakeup occurs
// Any thread that intends to wait on a ConditionVariable has to acquire a lock
// on a Mutex first. The |Wait()| and |WaitFor()| operations atomically release
// the mutex and suspend the execution of the calling thread. When the condition
// variable is notified, the thread is awakened, and the mutex is reacquired.

  // If any threads are waiting on this condition variable, calling
  // |NotifyOne()| unblocks one of the waiting threads.
  void NotifyOne();
 
  // Unblocks all threads currently waiting for this condition variable.
  void NotifyAll();
 
  // |Wait()| causes the calling thread to block until the condition variable is
  // notified or a spurious wakeup occurs. Atomically releases the mutex, blocks
  // the current executing thread, and adds it to the list of threads waiting on
  // this condition variable. The thread will be unblocked when |NotifyAll()| or
  // |NotifyOne()| is executed. It may also be unblocked spuriously. When
  // unblocked, regardless of the reason, the lock on the mutex is reacquired
  // and |Wait()| exits.

  // Atomically releases the mutex, blocks the current executing thread, and

  // spuriously. When unblocked, regardless of the reason, the lock on the mutex
  // is reacquired and |WaitFor()| exits. Returns true if the condition variable
