//! To use this engine, you can need to have a struct that implements
//! `PowAlgorithm`. After that, pass an instance of the struct, along
//! with other necessary client references to `import_queue` to setup
//! the queue. Use the `start_mine` function for basic CPU mining.
//!
//! The auxiliary storage for PoW engine only stores the total difficulty.
//! For other storage requirements for particular PoW algorithm (such as
//! the actual difficulty for each particular blocks), you can take a client
//! reference in your `PowAlgorithm` implementation, and use a separate prefix
//! for the auxiliary storage. It is also possible to just use the runtime
//! as the storage, but it is not recommended as it won't work well with light
//! clients.
