## Sync worker peers scheduler template
## ====================================
##
## Virtual method/interface functions to be provided as `mixin`:
##
## *runSetup(ctx: CtxRef[S]; tickerOK: bool): bool*
##   Global set up. This function will be called before any worker peer is
##   started. If that function returns `false`, no worker peers will be run.
##
## *runRelease(ctx: CtxRef[S])*
##   Global clean up, done with all the worker peers.
##
##
## *runStart(buddy: BuddyRef[S,W]): bool*
##   Initialise a new worker peer.
##
## *runStop(buddy: BuddyRef[S,W])*
##   Clean up this worker peer.
##
##
## *runPool(buddy: BuddyRef[S,W], last: bool)*
##   Once started, the function `runPool()` is called for all worker peers in
##   sequence as the body of an iteration. There will be no other worker peer
##   functions activated simultaneously.
##
##   This procedure is started if the global flag `buddy.ctx.poolMode` is set
##   `true` (default is `false`.) It is the responsibility of the `runPool()`
##   instance to reset the flag `buddy.ctx.poolMode`, typically at the first
##   peer instance.
##
##   The argument `last` is set `true` if the last entry is reached.
##
##   Note:
##   + This function does not run in `async` mode.
##   + The flag `buddy.ctx.poolMode` has priority over the flag
##     `buddy.ctrl.multiOk` which controls `runSingle()` and `runMulti()`.
##
##
## *runSingle(buddy: BuddyRef[S,W]) {.async.}*
##   This worker peer method is invoked if the peer-local flag
##   `buddy.ctrl.multiOk` is set `false` which is the default mode. This flag
##   is updated by the worker peer when deemed appropriate.
##   + For all workers, there can be only one `runSingle()` function active
##     simultaneously for all worker peers.
##   + There will be no `runMulti()` function active for the same worker peer
##     simultaneously
##   + There will be no `runPool()` iterator active simultaneously.
##
##   Note that this function runs in `async` mode.
##
##
## *runMulti(buddy: BuddyRef[S,W]) {.async.}*
##   This worker peer method is invoked if the `buddy.ctrl.multiOk` flag is
##   set `true` which is typically done after finishing `runSingle()`. This
##   instance can be simultaneously active for all worker peers.
##
##   Note that this function runs in `async` mode.
