> Components: tserver

>
> Certain operations, like waiting for a scan timestamp to be "safe" before
> proceeding with the scan, or waiting in the context of commit-wait in the
> transaction manager can easily block threads which will starve all other work.
> Both these operation end up calling WaitUntilAfter() or
> WaitUntilAfterLocally() on the HybridClock. We should use a notification
> mechanism instead, i.e. NotifyMeAfter(ts, &callback, &thread_pool),
> NotifyMeAfterLocally(ts, &callback, &thread_pool).
> Similar reversals should likely be made on the MvccManager's
> WaitForCleanSnapshotAtTimestamp() and WaitForCleanSnapshot().
