/*
* BackgroundThread is a lightweight single background worker thread implementation for situations in which
* you simply want to do one or several things in another thread, and using a thread pool is overkill.
* Also, several BackgroundThreads can be used in situations where a thread pool is unsuitable by design. For example,
* you can use two BackgroundThreads to asynchronously read a list of files from disk one at at time and download another list
* of files from the internet without hogging either the hard disk or the network layer with more than one concurrent access.
*
* BackgroundThread can be configured to own the job objects (will delete them after running) or not. It can also own
* the semaphore and queue, or use a shared context.
*
* BackgroundThreadPool is a low overhead thread pool implementation around BackgroundThread.
