/**
 * This class provides skeletal implementations of some {@link Queue}
 * operations. The implementations in this class are appropriate when
 * the base implementation does [i]not[/i] allow <tt>null</tt>
 * elements.  Methods {@link #add add}, {@link #remove remove}, and
 * {@link #element element} are based on {@link #offer offer}, {@link
 * #poll poll}, and {@link #peek peek}, respectively, but throw
 * exceptions instead of indicating failure via <tt>false</tt> or
 * <tt>null</tt> returns.
 AbstractQueue提供了Queue的操作实现的基础。AbstractQueue可以作为不允许
 元素为null时，Queue的简单实现。add，remove，element方法分别基于offer，
 poll，peek的实现，但是当队列为null时，抛出异常，而不是返回false或null。

 * <p>A <tt>Queue</tt> implementation that extends this class must
 * minimally define a method {@link Queue#offer} which does not permit
 * insertion of <tt>null</tt> elements, along with methods {@link
 * Queue#peek}, {@link Queue#poll}, {@link Collection#size}, and
 * {@link Collection#iterator}.  Typically, additional methods will be
 * overridden as well.  If these requirements cannot be met, consider
 * instead subclassing {@link AbstractCollection}.
 *
Queue的实现必须实现offer方法，并且允许插入null;peek，poll,size方法最好
重写，如果这些要求不能满足，可以用AbstractCollection代替。

总结：
AbstractQueue的add，remove，element方法分别基于offer，poll，peek的实现，但是当队列为null时，抛出异常，而不是返回false或null。offer，poll，peek，并没有实现待子类扩展。清空，循环poll，直到为空。addAll为循环遍历集合元素，add到队列；
