ParallelGamePlayer

The ParallelGamePlayer class implements the Player interface that defines the play method:

@Override
public void play() {
    final var table = new Table(NR_COLUMNS, colorManager);
    final var secret = new RandomSecret(colorManager);
    final var secretGuess = secret.createSecret(NR_COLUMNS);
    final var game = new Game(table, secretGuess);
    final var guessers = createGuessers(table);
    final var finalCheckGuesser = new UniqueGuesser(table);
    startAsynchronousGuessers(guessers);
    try {
        while (!game.isFinished()) {
            final var guess = guessQueue.take();
            if (finalCheckGuesser.guessMatch(guess)) {
                game.addNewGuess(guess);
            }
        }
    } catch (InterruptedException ie) {

    } finally {
        stopAsynchronousGuessers(guessers);
    }
}

This method creates a Table, a RandomSecret that...
