/**
 * A service that decouples the production of new asynchronous tasks
 * from the consumption of the results of completed tasks.  Producers
 * <tt>submit</tt> tasks for execution. Consumers <tt>take</tt>
 * completed tasks and process their results in the order they
 * complete.  A <tt>CompletionService</tt> can for example be used to
 * manage asynchronous IO, in which tasks that perform reads are
 * submitted in one part of a program or system, and then acted upon
 * in a different part of the program when the reads complete,
 * possibly in a different order than they were requested.
 *
CompletionService提供了生产异步任务和消费任务结果的解耦服务。生产者提交任务执行。
消费者以任务完成的顺序，消费完成的任务结果。CompletionService可以用于管理异步的IO
操作，比如应用或系统提交一些reads子任务操作，然后reads子任务可能以非他们请求的顺序完成
任务，执行操作。
 * <p>Typically, a <tt>CompletionService</tt> relies on a separate
 * {@link Executor} to actually execute the tasks, in which case the
 * <tt>CompletionService</tt> only manages an internal completion
 * queue. The {@link ExecutorCompletionService} class provides an
 * implementation of this approach.
 *
CompletionService实际上依赖于一个独立的Executor用于执行任务，CompletionService仅
用于管理内部的任务完成队列。ExecutorCompletionService提供了进一步的实现。
 * <p>Memory consistency effects: Actions in a thread prior to
 * submitting a task to a {@code CompletionService}
 * [url=package-summary.html#MemoryVisibility]<i>happen-before</i>[/url]
 * actions taken by that task, which in turn <i>happen-before</i>
 * actions following a successful return from the corresponding {@code take()}.
