Module spin::mutex::ticket

This is supported on crate features mutex and ticket_mutex only.

A ticket-based mutex.

Waiting threads take a ‘ticket’ from the lock in the order they arrive and gain access to the lock when their ticket is next in the queue. Best-case latency is slightly worse than a regular spinning mutex, but worse-case latency is infinitely better. Waiting threads simply need to wait for all threads that come before them in the queue to finish.
