> Observation class has been evolved a few times during Spark 3.5 to Spark 
> 4.0.0. Previously it uses locking mechanism (synchronized) between get and 
> onFinish methods to coordinate metrics update and retrieval.
> But it has a potential deadlocking bug. If get is called before 
> ObservationListener is triggered to call onFinish, get will forever be 
> waiting for metrics because it locks the observation object by synchronized 
> so later onFinish call is locked out from updating the metrics.
> This locking mechanism was replaced by a promise by SPARK-49423 which is a 
> large refactoring on the observation feature. But in the PR, I don’t see the 
> deadlock bug was mentioned, and there is no bug fix PR proposed to earlier 
> versions. So I think that the bug was not known and the fix is unintentional 
> in Spark 4.0.0. The bug is still in Spark 3.5 branch.
