feat: add Std.Notify type (#10368)
This PR adds `Notify` that is a structure that is similar to `CondVar`
but it's used for concurrency. The main difference between
`Std.Sync.Notify` and `Std.Condvar` is that depends on a `Std.Mutex` and
blocks the entire thread that the `Task` is using while waiting. If I
try to use it with async and a lot of `Task`s like this:

```lean
def condvar : Async Unit := do
  let condvar ← Std.Condvar.new
  let mutex ← Std.Mutex.new false

  for i in [0:threads] do
    background do
      IO.println s!"start {i + 1}"
      await =<< (show IO (ETask _ _) from IO.asTask (mutex.atomically (condvar.wait mutex)))
      IO.println s!"end {i + 1}"

  IO.sleep 2000
  condvar.notifyAll
```

It causes some weird behavior because some tasks start running and get
notified, while others don’t, because `condvar.wait` blocks the `Task`
entire task and right now afaik it blocks an entire thread and cannot be
paused while doing blocking operations like that.

`Notify` uses `Promise`s so it’s better suited for concurrency. The
`Task` is not blocked while waiting for a notification which makes it
simpler for use cases that just involve notifying:

```lean
def notify : Async Unit := do
  let notify ← Std.Notify.new

  for i in [0:threads] do
    background do
      IO.println s!"start {i}"
      notify.wait
      IO.println s!"end {i}"

  IO.sleep 2000
  notify.notify
```
