/**
 * Declare a worker class for processing a queue item.
 *
 * Worker plugins are used by some queues for processing the individual items
 * in the queue. In that case, the ID of the worker plugin needs to match the
 * machine name of a queue, so that you can retrieve the queue back end by
 * calling \Drupal\Core\Queue\QueueFactory::get($plugin_id).
 *
 * \Drupal\Core\Cron::processQueues() processes queues that use workers; they
 * can also be processed outside of the cron process.
 *
 * Some queues do not use worker plugins: you can create queues, add items to
 * them, claim them, etc. without using a QueueWorker plugin. However, you will
 * need to take care of processing the items in the queue in that case. You can
 * look at \Drupal\Core\Cron::processQueues() for an example of how to process
 * a queue that uses workers, and adapt it to your queue.
