Thread Parking

Thread parking lets a thread park itself so it no longer consumes CPU cycles while waiting for other threads to wake it.

Other threads can call unpark on the thread handle to wake it up. If unpark is called before the thread is parked, the wake-up token is saved and the next park returns immediately without sleeping. Calling unpark multiple times only skips the first park.
