// snapshotQueue is a thing which can handle enqueuing snapshots. A snapshot
// queue distinguishes between high-priority requests, which get satisfied
// by the next available worker, and regular requests, which get enqueued
// if there's space in the queue, and otherwise dropped. There's also a
// separate background task to scan a holder for fragments which may need
// snapshots, but which is processed only when the queue is empty, and only
// slowly. "Await" awaits an existing snapshot if one is already enqueued.
// "Immediate" tries to do one right away. (If one's already enqueued, this
// can leave it in the queue, which will ignore anything that shows up with
// the request flag cleared.)
//
// Await, Enqueue, and Immediate should be called only with the fragment lock
// held.
//
// ScanHolder spawns a new goroutine. You don't need to use `go` on it.
