bug#46230: When are spurious wakeups of condition variables possible?

Hi guilers,

Whether spurious wakeups of condition variables are
possible isn't documented in the manual.  Apparently,
guile may or may not actually prevent spurious wakeups
(#guile, Mon  1 Feb 09:19:29 UTC 2021).  The bug is:

* No mention of the possibility of spurious wakeups
  in the manual,
* and perhaps (idk) guile not preventing spurious
  wakeups.

Even if guile stops all spurious wakeups from being
visible to Scheme code, could this be documented?
Then people don't have to worry about this anymore.

Maxime.
