962af9198f native: Protect against spurious wakeups on cvars
This is a very real problem with cvars on normal systems, and all of channels
will not work if spurious wakeups are accepted. This problem is just solved with
a synchronized flag (accessed in the cvar's lock) to see whether a signal()
actually happened or whether it's spurious.

8be66e212b std: Implement yields on receives for channels
This will prevent a deadlock when a task spins in a try_recv when using channel
communication routines is a clear location for a M:N scheduling to happen.

49e5493587 std: Reimplement std::comm without the scheduler
Like the librustuv refactoring, this refactors std::comm to sever all ties with
the scheduler. This means that the entire `comm::imp` module can be deleted in
favor of implementations outside of libstd.

67c0222252 Guarantee comm primitives are not Freeze
None of these primitives should be Freeze because sharing them in an Arc is a
very bad idea.

Closes #11039

bfa9064ba2 Rewrite std::comm
* Streams are now ~3x faster than before (fewer allocations and more optimized)
    * Based on a single-producer single-consumer lock-free queue that doesn't
      always have to allocate on every send.
    * Blocking via mutexes/cond vars outside the runtime
* Streams work in/out of the runtime seamlessly
* Select now works in/out of the runtime seamlessly
* Streams will now fail!() on send() if the other end has hung up
    * try_send() will not fail
* PortOne/ChanOne removed
* SharedPort removed
* MegaPipe removed
* Generic select removed (only one kind of port now)
* API redesign
    * try_recv == never block
    * recv_opt == block, don't fail
    * iter() == Iterator<T> for Port<T>
    * removed peek
    * Type::new
* Removed rt::comm
