This is a refactor without functional changes, in preparation for adding a sequence number generator into the priority queue. Release note: None
When priorities are equal, the priority queue naively performs close to LIFO which is not what we want as it allows starvation of items backed into the queue. This poses a big problem for the Raft snapshot queue when put under pressure. See cockroachdb#31947 (comment). Release note (bug fix): Avoid a stall in the processing of Raft snapshots when many snapshots are requested at the same time.
