Set the event. Any tasks waiting on the event will be scheduled to run.
Note: This must be called from within a task. It is not safe to call this
from an IRQ, scheduler callback, or other thread. See `ThreadSafeFlag`.

Clear the event.

class ThreadSafeFlag
--------------------
.. class:: ThreadSafeFlag()
Create a new flag which can be used to synchronise a task with code running
outside the asyncio loop, such as other threads, IRQs, or scheduler
callbacks. Flags start in the cleared state.
.. method:: ThreadSafeFlag.set()
Set the flag. If there is a task waiting on the event, it will be scheduled
to run.
.. method:: ThreadSafeFlag.wait()
Wait for the flag to be set. If the flag is already set then it returns
immediately.
A flag may only be waited on by a single task at a time.
This is a coroutine.
