/**
* A queue is a collection in which the entities in the collection are kept in
* order.
*
* The principal operations on the queue are the addition of entities to the end
* (tail), also known as *enqueue*, and removal of entities from the front
* (head), also known as *dequeue*. This makes the queue a first-in-first-out
* (FIFO) data structure.
*
* Besides basic array operations, queues provide additional insertion,
* extraction, and inspection operations. Each of these methods exists in two
* forms: one throws an exception if the operation fails, the other returns a
* special value (either `null` or `false`, depending on the operation). The
* latter form of the insert operation is designed specifically for use with
* capacity-restricted `QueueInterface` implementations; in most
* implementations, insert operations cannot fail.

*
* Queues typically, but do not necessarily, order elements in a FIFO
* (first-in-first-out) manner. Among the exceptions are priority queues, which
* order elements according to a supplied comparator, or the elements' natural
* ordering, and LIFO queues (or stacks) which order the elements LIFO
* (last-in-first-out). Whatever the ordering used, the head of the queue is
* that element which would be removed by a call to remove() or poll(). In a
* FIFO queue, all new elements are inserted at the tail of the queue. Other
* kinds of queues may use different placement rules. Every `QueueInterface`
* implementation must specify its ordering properties.
*
* The `offer()` method inserts an element if possible, otherwise returning
* `false`. This differs from the `add()` method, which can fail to add an
* element only by throwing an unchecked exception. The `offer()` method is
* designed for use when failure is a normal, rather than exceptional
* occurrence, for example, in fixed-capacity (or "bounded") queues.
*
* The `remove()` and `poll()` methods remove and return the head of the queue.
* Exactly which element is removed from the queue is a function of the queue's
* ordering policy, which differs from implementation to implementation. The
* `remove()` and `poll()` methods differ only in their behavior when the queue
* is empty: the `remove()` method throws an exception, while the `poll()`
* method returns `null`.
*
* The `element()` and `peek()` methods return, but do not remove, the head of
* the queue.
*
* `QueueInterface` implementations generally do not allow insertion of `null`
* elements, although some implementations do not prohibit insertion of `null`.
* Even in the implementations that permit it, `null` should not be inserted
* into a queue, as `null` is also used as a special return value by the
* `poll()` method to indicate that the queue contains no elements.

*
* Queues that support this operation may place limitations on what elements
* may be added to this queue. In particular, some queues will refuse to add
* `null` elements, and others will impose restrictions on the type of
* elements that may be added. Queue classes should clearly specify in their
* documentation any restrictions on what elements may be added.
*
* If a queue refuses to add a particular element for any reason other than
