Summary
This PR implements a partially lock-free size balanced tree with delayed balancing to address issue #78.
Key Features
✅ Lock-free insertions: Multiple insertions (N) can be performed concurrently using
ReaderWriterLockSlimread locks✅ Delayed balancing: Balancing operations are delayed until a configurable threshold of insertions is reached
✅ Thread-safe operations: Uses atomic operations (
Interlocked) for tracking insertion counts✅ Exclusive locking for balancing: Tree balancing only locks when necessary using write locks
