// The algorithmic flow is as follows:
//  - The `processing` flag is swapped to 1 to ensure singleton access
//  - The current `cancel` channel is retrieved to detect sync abortions
//  - Blocks are iteratively taken from the cache and inserted into the chain
//  - When the cache becomes empty, insertion stops
//  - The `processing` flag is swapped back to 0
//  - A post-exit check is made whether new blocks became available
//     - This step is important: it handles a potential race condition between
//       checking for no more work, and releasing the processing "mutex". In
//       between these state changes, a block may have arrived, but a processing
//       attempt denied, so we need to re-enter to ensure the block isn't left
//       to idle in the cache.
