Crate ordered_channel

Equivalent of mpsc or crossbeam-channel, but allows sending messages with an index associated with them, to be delivered in the specific indexed order.

This enables performing multi-threaded work without accidentally reordering results.

Results are delivered as soon as possible, with minimal buffering. Items received out of order are temporarily kept in a binary heap.
