    SpinLock()

Creates a non-reentrant lock.
Recursive use will result in a deadlock.
Each `lock` must be matched with an `unlock`.

Test-and-test-and-set spin locks are quickest up to about 30ish
contending threads. If you have more contention than that, perhaps
a lock is the wrong way to synchronize.

See also RecursiveSpinLock for a version that permits recursion.

See also Mutex for a more efficient version on one core or if the lock may be held for a considerable length of time.
