 * complete, some objects captured during the computation are closed.
 *
 * <p>A pipeline of {@code ClosingFuture}s is a tree of steps. Each step represents either an
 * asynchronously-computed intermediate value, or else an exception that indicates the failure or
 * cancellation of the operation so far. The only way to extract the value or exception from a step

   * array whose contents are initially non-null. The {@code @Nullable} annotation indicates that
   * this method will write nulls into the array during iteration.
   *
   * <p>This is mainly just to avoid the intermediate ArrayDeque in ConsumingQueueIterator.
