// Package queue  provides Vault plugins with a Priority Queue. It can be used
// as an in-memory list of queue.Item sorted by their priority, and offers
// methods to find or remove items by their key. Internally it uses
// container/heap; see Example Priority Queue:
// https://golang.org/pkg/container/heap/#example__priorityQueue
