docs: Sets the count to the given value if the current count is zero. If count is not zero, this method does nothing
          and returns ``false``.
  
          :param count: (int), the number of times count_down() must be invoked before threads can pass through await().
          :return: (bool), ``true`` if the new count was set, ``false`` if the current count is not zero.
