Description

Condvar in https://github.com/salsa-rs/salsa/blob/f78a641d2086695ac0ef96cbe915bf80b5a690f2/src/storage.rs#L5 is being resolved to std's condvar which is incorrect, it should resolve to https://github.com/salsa-rs/salsa/blob/f78a641d2086695ac0ef96cbe915bf80b5a690f2/src/loom.rs#L214 instead. That is the pub use std::sync::*; glob import there is shadowing the definition incorrectly.

Research direction

Start in src/storage.rs at line 5 and compare the Condvar resolution with the definition and glob export around src/loom.rs line 214. Trace the glob-import resolution behavior and run the relevant name-resolution tests. Done means Condvar resolves to the loom definition rather than std's Condvar, with a regression test covering the case.
