/**
 * The list of pending editor actions.
 *
 * This plugin should be used to synchronise plugins that execute long-lasting actions
 * (e.g. file upload) with the editor integration. It gives the developer who integrates the editor
 * an easy way to check if there are any actions pending whenever such information is needed.
 * All plugins that register a pending action also provide a message about the action that is ongoing
 * which can be displayed to the user. This lets them decide if they want to interrupt the action or wait.
 *
 * Adding and updating a pending action:
 *
 * ```ts
 * const pendingActions = editor.plugins.get( 'PendingActions' );
 * const action = pendingActions.add( 'Upload in progress: 0%.' );
 *
 * // You can update the message:
 * action.message = 'Upload in progress: 10%.';
 * ```
 *
 * Removing a pending action:
 *
 * ```ts
 * const pendingActions = editor.plugins.get( 'PendingActions' );
 * const action = pendingActions.add( 'Unsaved changes.' );
 *
 * pendingActions.remove( action );
 * ```
 *
 * Getting pending actions:
 *
 * ```ts
 * const pendingActions = editor.plugins.get( 'PendingActions' );
 *
 * const action1 = pendingActions.add( 'Action 1' );
 * const action2 = pendingActions.add( 'Action 2' );
 *
 * pendingActions.first; // Returns action1
 * Array.from( pendingActions ); // Returns [ action1, action2 ]
 * ```
 *
 * This plugin is used by features like {@link module:upload/filerepository~FileRepository} to register their ongoing actions
 * and by features like {@link module:autosave/autosave~Autosave} to detect whether there are any ongoing actions.
 * Read more about saving the data in the
 * {@glink getting-started/setup/getting-and-setting-data Saving and getting data} guide.
