--- A light implementation of Binary heaps data structure.
-- While running a search, some search algorithms (Astar, Dijkstra, Jump Point Search) have to maintains
-- a list of nodes called __open list__. Retrieve from this list the lowest cost node can be quite slow,
-- as it normally requires to skim through the full set of nodes stored in this list. This becomes a real
-- problem especially when dozens of nodes are being processed (on large maps).
--
-- The current module implements a <a href="http://www.policyalmanac.org/games/binaryHeaps.htm">binary heap</a>
-- data structure, from which the search algorithm will instantiate an open list, and cache the nodes being
-- examined during a search. As such, retrieving the lower-cost node is faster and globally makes the search end
-- up quickly.
--
-- This module is internally used by the library on purpose.
-- It should normally not be used explicitely, yet it remains fully accessible.
