/*!
This module handles the creation and processing of batch operations.
A batch is a combination of multiple tasks that can be processed at once.
Executing a batch operation should always be functionally equivalent to
executing each of its tasks' operations individually and in order.
For example, if the user sends two tasks:
1. import documents X
2. import documents Y
We can combine the two tasks in a single batch:
1. import documents X and Y
Processing this batch is functionally equivalent to processing the two
tasks individally, but should be much faster since we are only performing
one indexing operation.

/*!
This crate defines the index scheduler, which is responsible for:
1. Keeping references to meilisearch's indexes and mapping them to their
user-defined names.
2. Scheduling tasks given by the user and executing them, in batch if possible.
When an `IndexScheduler` is created, a new thread containing a reference to the
scheduler is created. This thread runs the scheduler's run loop, where the
scheduler waits to be woken up to process new tasks. It wakes up when:
1. it is launched for the first time
2. a new task is registered
3. a batch of tasks has been processed
It is only within this thread that the scheduler is allowed to process tasks.
On the other hand, the publicly accessible methods of the scheduler can be
called asynchronously from any thread. These methods can either query the
content of the scheduler or enqueue new tasks.
