///
/// Dequeuing is done in batches: the queue is emptied by atomically replacing head with
/// null. Then the batch is iterated following the next pointers until null is reached.
///
/// Note that batches will be iterated in the reverse order as they were enqueued. This is OK
/// for our purposes: it can't create fairness problems since the next batch won't run until the
/// current batch is completely processed, so even if a task enqueues itself instantly (for example
/// by waking its own waker) can't prevent other tasks from running.
