```
std: remove atomic.Queue

This was originally supposed to be a lock-free queue, but I gave up on
that and made it be a thread-safe queue instead.

Putting the mutex directly inside the queue data structure makes it
non-composeable. Instead, the recommendation is to use a normal queue
protected by an external mutex.
