On hardware, notifying a callback of a thread in a CB wait takes it out of
the wait at once, even though the callback only runs when the thread would
get the CPU. A semaphore signalled in between doesn't end the wait: the
callback runs first, then the wait resumes and takes it (pspautotests
threads/callbacks/combos). We left the thread on the wait list until the
callback started, so the signal ended the wait and the callback didn't
run.
The notify now pauses the wait, as starting a callback used to. If the
callbacks are canceled before the thread's turn comes, the wait just
resumes (Thread savestate section version 7).
threads/callbacks/combos goes in the to-do list: a callback returning to
the thread that notified it still takes ~13us where hardware takes ~9,
part of the context switch cost.
