thread is the only one that can do anything; the consumer is
blocked waiting for the \c bufferNotEmpty condition to be
signalled (\c numUsedBytes is 0). Once the producer has put one

\c bufferNotEmpty condition is signalled. At that point, two
things can happen: Either the consumer thread takes over and
reads that byte, or the producer gets to produce a second byte.
