/**
* Serializes execution of tasks, somewhat like an "asynchronous {@code synchronized} block." Each
* {@linkplain #submit enqueued} callable will not be submitted to its associated executor until the
* previous callable has returned -- and, if the previous callable was an {@link AsyncCallable}, not
* until the {@code Future} it returned is {@linkplain Future#isDone done} (successful, failed, or
* cancelled).
*
* This class has limited support for cancellation and other "early completion":
*
*
* - While calls to {@code submit} and {@code submitAsync} return a {@code Future} that can be
* cancelled, cancellation never propagates to a task that has started to run -- neither to
* the callable itself nor to any {@code Future} returned by an {@code AsyncCallable}.
* (However, cancellation can prevent an unstarted task from running.) Therefore, the
* next task will wait for any running callable (or pending {@code Future} returned by an
* {@code AsyncCallable}) to complete, without interrupting it (and without calling {@code
* cancel} on the {@code Future}). So beware: Even if you cancel every precededing {@code
* Future} returned by this class, the next task may still have to wait..
*
- Once an {@code AsyncCallable} returns a {@code Future}, this class considers that task to
* be "done" as soon as that {@code Future} completes in any way. Notably, a {@code
* Future} is "completed" even if it is cancelled while its underlying work continues on a
* thread, an RPC, etc. The {@code Future} is also "completed" if it fails "early" -- for
* example, if the deadline expires on a {@code Future} returned from {@link
* Futures#withTimeout} while the {@code Future} it wraps continues its underlying work. So
* beware: Your {@code AsyncCallable} should not complete its {@code Future} until it is
* safe for the next task to start.
*
*
* An additional limitation: this class serializes execution of tasks but not any
* listeners of those tasks.
*
*
This class is similar to {@link MoreExecutors#newSequentialExecutor}. This class is different
* in a few ways:
*
*
* - Each task may be associated with a different executor.
*
- Tasks may be of type {@code AsyncCallable}.
*
- Running tasks cannot be interrupted. (Note that {@code newSequentialExecutor} does
* not return {@code Future} objects, so it doesn't support interruption directly, either.
* However, utilities that use that executor have the ability to interrupt tasks
* running on it. This class, by contrast, does not expose an {@code Executor} API.)
*
*
* If you don't need the features of this class, you may prefer {@code newSequentialExecutor} for
* its simplicity and ability to accommodate interruption.
*

* This class would certainly be simpler and easier to reason about if it were built with

* hashmaps. Using a static ThreadLocal to avoid that overhead would mean that different
* ExecutionSequencer objects interfere with each other, which would be undesirable, in addition
* to increasing the memory footprint of every thread that interacted with it. In order to release
* entries in thread-specific maps when the ThreadLocal object itself is no longer referenced,
* ThreadLocal is usually implemented with a WeakReference, which can have negative performance
* properties; for example, calling WeakReference.get() on Android will block during an
* otherwise-concurrent GC cycle.
