Ingo Weinhold d0c2af7713 Addressed a deadlock race condition: Acquiration of condition variable
and thread spinlock was reverse in Wait() and Notify(). The thread lock
is now the outer lock -- this way it is still possible to call Notify()
with the thread lock being held.

Ingo Weinhold eee9e86c6b Set default template argument to void, so that one doesn't need to
bother.

Ingo Weinhold addece2001 * Fixed incorrect check in condition_variable_interrupt_thread().
Condition variables would never be interrupted.
* ConditionVariableEntry::Add() did not correctly insert the entry into
  the per-thread list of entries (the next link of the previous entry
  was not adjusted), which could leave the entry unnotified when the
  previous entry was notified, thus leaving it in the respective
  condition variable's list after the end of its life time. This should
  fix a crashing bug I rarely encountered.
* Added debug checks in the PrivateConditionVariableEntry
  constructor/destructor that should have helped me to find
  forementioned bug hours earlier, had I been bright enough to realize
  that I didn't include <debug.h> and those KDEBUG guarded checks were
  never executed. :-/

Ingo Weinhold c9e5503e5e Notify*() and Unpublish() acquire the threads lock. So they need to know
whether the lock is already being held.

Ingo Weinhold 4ed7917682 Wait() returns a status_t now, which can be B_OK (condition variable
exists and thread was notified), B_ENTRY_NOT_FOUND (condition variable
not found or Unpublish()ed while waiting), or B_INTERRUPTED
(interrupted by a signal).

Ingo Weinhold ff308b0b49 Condition variables changes:
* Removed left-over commented C implementation.
* It is now possible for a thread to wait for more than one condition
  variable at a time.
* Made waiting for condition variables optionally interruptable.
* Renamed Notify() method to NotifyAll() and added a NotifyOne(), so
  that it is now possible to wake up only one of the waiting threads.
Pretty much untested at the moment.

Ingo Weinhold 227402f2bf Added simple condition variables to the kernel. They are a relatively
cheap means to block threads until notified explicitely.
