The manual ([Tasks · The Julia Language](https://docs.julialang.org/en/v1/base/parallel/#Base.notify)) says that `notify` can pass `val` to its waiting conditions.
How can I obtain `val` from the woken up conditions?

That’s the value `wait` will return:
```julia
julia> c = Condition()
Condition(Base.InvasiveLinkedList{Task}(nothing, nothing), Base.AlwaysLockedST(1))
julia> @async println("waited for a ", wait(c))
Task (runnable) @0x00007f8ea0ebc7f0
julia> notify(c, 222); println()
waited for a 222
```
