//! Core traits for interacting with backends
//!
//! The core traits and types for backends, responsible for providing sources of tasks, handling their lifecycle, and exposing middleware for internal processing.
//! The traits here abstract over different backend implementations, allowing for extensibility and interoperability.
//!
//! # Overview
//! - [`Backend`]: The primary trait representing a task source, defining methods for polling tasks, heartbeats, and middleware.
//! - [`TaskSink`]: An extension trait for backends that support pushing tasks.
//! - [`FetchById`], [`Update`], [`Reschedule`]: Additional traits for managing tasks.
//! - [`Vacuum`], [`ResumeById`], [`ResumeAbandoned`]: Traits for backend maintenance and task recovery.
//! - [`RegisterWorker`], [`ListWorkers`], [`ListTasks`]: Traits for worker management and task listing.
//! - [`WaitForCompletion`]: A trait for waiting on task completion and checking their status.
//!
//!
//! ## Default Implementations
//!
//! The module includes several default backend implementations, such as:
//! - [`MemoryStorage`](memory::MemoryStorage): An in-memory backend for testing and lightweight use cases
//! - [`Pipe`](pipe::Pipe): A simple pipe-based backend for inter-thread communication
//! - [`CustomBackend`](custom::CustomBackend): A flexible backend allowing custom functions for task management
