//! A scheduler is initialized with a fixed number of workers. Each worker is
//! driven by a thread. Each worker has a "core" which contains data such as the
//! run queue and other state. When `block_in_place` is called, the worker's
//! "core" is handed off to a new thread allowing the scheduler to continue to
//! make progress while the originating thread blocks.
