12/// High-level wrapper for the ai-coustics audio enhancement model.
13///
14/// This struct provides a safe, Rust-friendly interface to the underlying C library.
15/// It handles memory management automatically and converts C-style error codes
16/// to Rust `Result` types.
17///
18/// # Sharing and Multi-threading
19///
20/// `Model` is `Send` and `Sync`, so you can share it across threads. It does not implement
21/// `Clone`, so wrap it in an `Arc` if you need shared ownership.
22///
23/// # Example
24///
25/// ```rust,no_run
26/// # use aic_sdk::{Model, ProcessorConfig, Processor};
27/// # let license_key = std::env::var("AIC_SDK_LICENSE").unwrap();
28/// let model = Model::from_file("/path/to/model.aicmodel")?;
29/// let config = ProcessorConfig::optimal(&model).with_num_channels(2);
30/// let mut processor = Processor::new(&model, &license_key)?;
31/// processor.initialize(&config)?;
32/// let mut audio_buffer = vec![0.0f32; config.num_channels as usize * config.num_frames];
33/// processor.process_interleaved(&mut audio_buffer)?;
34/// # Ok::<(), aic_sdk::AicError>(())
35/// ```
36///
37/// # Multi-threaded Example
38///
39/// ```rust,no_run
40/// # use aic_sdk::{Model, ProcessorConfig, Processor};
41/// # use std::{thread, sync::Arc};
42/// let model = Arc::new(Model::from_file("/path/to/model.aicmodel")?);
43///
44/// // Spawn multiple threads, each with its own processor but sharing the same model
45/// let handles: Vec<_> = (0..4)
46///     .map(|i| {
47///         let model_clone = Arc::clone(&model);
48///         thread::spawn(move || {
