    // This is the "main loop" of parallel work happening for parallel codegen.
    // It's here that we manage parallelism, schedule work, and work with
    // messages coming from clients.
    //
    // There are a few environmental pre-conditions that shape how the system
    // is set up:
    //
    // - Error reporting only can happen on the main thread because that's the
    //   only place where we have access to the compiler `Session`.
    // - LLVM work can be done on any thread.
    // - Codegen can only happen on the main thread.
    // - Each thread doing substantial work most be in possession of a `Token`
    //   from the `Jobserver`.
    // - The compiler process always holds one `Token`. Any additional `Tokens`
    //   have to be requested from the `Jobserver`.
    //
    // Error Reporting
    // ===============
    // The error reporting restriction is handled separately from the rest: We
    // set up a `SharedEmitter` the holds an open channel to the main thread.
    // When an error occurs on any thread, the shared emitter will send the
    // error message to the receiver main thread (`SharedEmitterMain`). The
    // main thread will periodically query this error message queue and emit
    // any error messages it has received. It might even abort compilation if
    // has received a fatal error. In this case we rely on all other threads
    // being torn down automatically with the main thread.
    // Since the main thread will often be busy doing codegen work, error
    // reporting will be somewhat delayed, since the message queue can only be
    // checked in between to work packages.
    //
    // Work Processing Infrastructure
    // ==============================
    // The work processing infrastructure knows three major actors:
    //
    // - the coordinator thread,
    // - the main thread, and
    // - LLVM worker threads
    //
    // The coordinator thread is running a message loop. It instructs the main
    // thread about what work to do when, and it will spawn off LLVM worker
    // threads as open LLVM WorkItems become available.
    //
    // The job of the main thread is to codegen CGUs into LLVM work package
    // (since the main thread is the only thread that can do this). The main
    // thread will block until it receives a message from the coordinator, upon
    // which it will codegen one CGU, send it to the coordinator and block
    // again. This way the coordinator can control what the main thread is
    // doing.
    //
    // The coordinator keeps a queue of LLVM WorkItems, and when a `Token` is
    // available, it will spawn off a new LLVM worker thread and let it process
    // that a WorkItem. When a LLVM worker thread is done with its WorkItem,
    // it will just shut down, which also frees all resources associated with
    // the given LLVM module, and sends a message to the coordinator that the
    // has been completed.
    //
    // Work Scheduling
    // ===============
    // The scheduler's goal is to minimize the time it takes to complete all
    // work there is, however, we also want to keep memory consumption low
    // if possible. These two goals are at odds with each other: If memory
    // consumption were not an issue, we could just let the main thread produce
    // LLVM WorkItems at full speed, assuring maximal utilization of
    // Tokens/LLVM worker threads. However, since codegen usual is faster
    // than LLVM processing, the queue of LLVM WorkItems would fill up and each
    // WorkItem potentially holds on to a substantial amount of memory.
    //
    // So the actual goal is to always produce just enough LLVM WorkItems as
    // not to starve our LLVM worker threads. That means, once we have enough
    // WorkItems in our queue, we can block the main thread, so it does not
    // produce more until we need them.
    //
    // Doing LLVM Work on the Main Thread
    // ----------------------------------
    // Since the main thread owns the compiler processes implicit `Token`, it is
    // wasteful to keep it blocked without doing any work. Therefore, what we do
    // in this case is: We spawn off an additional LLVM worker thread that helps
    // reduce the queue. The work it is doing corresponds to the implicit
    // `Token`. The coordinator will mark the main thread as being busy with
    // LLVM work. (The actual work happens on another OS thread but we just care
    // about `Tokens`, not actual threads).
    //
    // When any LLVM worker thread finishes while the main thread is marked as
    // "busy with LLVM work", we can do a little switcheroo: We give the Token
    // of the just finished thread to the LLVM worker thread that is working on
    // behalf of the main thread's implicit Token, thus freeing up the main
    // thread again. The coordinator can then again decide what the main thread
    // should do. This allows the coordinator to make decisions at more points
    // in time.
    //
    // Striking a Balance between Throughput and Memory Consumption
    // ------------------------------------------------------------
    // Since our two goals, (1) use as many Tokens as possible and (2) keep
    // memory consumption as low as possible, are in conflict with each other,
    // we have to find a trade off between them. Right now, the goal is to keep
    // all workers busy, which means that no worker should find the queue empty
    // when it is ready to start.
    // How do we do achieve this? Good question :) We actually never know how
    // many `Tokens` are potentially available so it's hard to say how much to
    // fill up the queue before switching the main thread to LLVM work. Also we
    // currently don't have a means to estimate how long a running LLVM worker
    // will still be busy with it's current WorkItem. However, we know the
    // maximal count of available Tokens that makes sense (=the number of CPU
    // cores), so we can take a conservative guess. The heuristic we use here
    // is implemented in the `queue_full_enough()` function.
    //
    // Some Background on Jobservers
    // -----------------------------
    // It's worth also touching on the management of parallelism here. We don't
    // want to just spawn a thread per work item because while that's optimal
    // parallelism it may overload a system with too many threads or violate our
    // configuration for the maximum amount of cpu to use for this process. To
    // manage this we use the `jobserver` crate.
    //
    // Job servers are an artifact of GNU make and are used to manage
    // parallelism between processes. A jobserver is a glorified IPC semaphore
    // basically. Whenever we want to run some work we acquire the semaphore,
    // and whenever we're done with that work we release the semaphore. In this
    // manner we can ensure that the maximum number of parallel workers is
    // capped at any one point in time.
    //
    // LTO and the coordinator thread
    // ------------------------------
    //
    // The final job the coordinator thread is responsible for is managing LTO
    // and how that works. When LTO is requested what we'll to is collect all
    // optimized LLVM modules into a local vector on the coordinator. Once all
    // modules have been codegened and optimized we hand this to the `lto`
    // module for further optimization. The `lto` module will return back a list
    // of more modules to work on, which the coordinator will continue to spawn
    // work for.
    //
    // Each LLVM module is automatically sent back to the coordinator for LTO if
    // necessary. There's already optimizations in place to avoid sending work
    // back to the coordinator if LTO isn't requested.
