// priorityPool handles a set of nodes where each node has a capacity (a scalar value)
// and a priority (which can change over time and can also depend on the capacity).
// A node is active if it has at least the necessary minimal amount of capacity while
// inactive nodes have 0 capacity (values between 0 and the minimum are not allowed).
// The pool ensures that the number and total capacity of all active nodes are limited
// and the highest priority nodes are active at all times (limits can be changed
// during operation with immediate effect).
//
// When activating clients a priority bias is applied in favor of the already active
// nodes in order to avoid nodes quickly alternating between active and inactive states
// when their priorities are close to each other. The bias is specified in terms of
// duration (time) because priorities are expected to usually get lower over time and
// therefore a future minimum prediction (see EstMinPriority) should monotonously
// decrease with the specified time parameter.
// This time bias can be interpreted as minimum expected active time at the given
// capacity (if the threshold priority stays the same).
//
// Nodes in the pool always have either inactiveFlag or activeFlag set. A new node is
// added to the pool by externally setting inactiveFlag. priorityPool can switch a node
// between inactiveFlag and activeFlag at any time. Nodes can be removed from the pool
// by externally resetting both flags. activeFlag should not be set externally.
//
// The highest priority nodes in "inactive" state are moved to "active" state as soon as
// the minimum capacity can be granted for them. The capacity of lower priority active
// nodes is reduced or they are demoted to "inactive" state if their priority is
// insufficient even at minimal capacity.
