+ * An async iterable queue that bridges push-based producers and pull-based consumers.
+ *
+ * Composes an internal {@link ReadableStream} instead of extending it, so producers
+ * call {@link push} while consumers use standard async iteration (`for await...of`).
+ *
+ * ```ts
+ * const messages = new AsyncPushIterator<SSEvent>();
+ *
+ * // Producer (elsewhere)
+ * messages.push(event);
+ *
+ * // Consumer
+ * for await (const event of messages) {
+ *   handle(event);
+ * }
+ * ```
+ *
+ * {@link Symbol.asyncIterator} returns `stream.values({ preventCancel: true })` so
+ * breaking out of `for await...of` does not cancel the underlying stream. That
+ * matters for long-lived sessions where the producer keeps pushing after a consumer
+ * stops reading early (for example, test helpers that only collect a fixed count).
