Implementation of BRAVO - Biased Locking for Reader-Writer Locks
Dave Dice and Alex Kogan. 2019. BRAVO: Biased Locking for Reader-Writer Locks.
In Proceedings of the 2019 USENIX Annual Technical Conference (ATC). USENIX Association, Renton, WA, 315–328.

> Section 3.
> BRAVO acts as an accelerator layer, as readers can always fall back to the traditional underlying lock to gain read access.
> ...
> Write performance and the scalability of read-vs-write and write-vs-write behavior depends solely on the underlying lock.
This code is C++ version of puzpuzpuz/xsync's RBMutex
