Detailed Description

A thread-safe blackboard for storing key-value pairs.

The Blackboard class provides a mechanism to store data in a dictionary-like format,
allowing for concurrent access and modification through thread-safe operations.

Attributes:
    _data (Dict[str, Any]): A dictionary holding the data stored in the blackboard.
    __lock (Lock): A threading lock to ensure thread-safe access to the _data attribute.

Methods:
    __getitem__(key): Retrieve a value associated with the given key.
    __setitem__(key, value): Set a value for the given key.
    __delitem__(key): Remove the value associated with the given key.
    __contains__(key): Check if a key exists in the blackboard.
    __len__(): Return the number of items in the blackboard.
    __repr__(): Return a string representation of the blackboard's data.
