//! Citation rendering orchestration.
//!
//! This module resolves the effective citation spec for each citation, prepares
//! renderer delimiters and affixes. Template-level rendering, including
//! sentence-initial note-start handling, lives in `rendering`.
//!
//! Registration (`&mut RunState`) and rendering (`&RunState`) are interleaved
//! per citation, in document order: each citation's disambiguation,
//! position, and dynamic grouping depend on the cumulative state left by
//! every citation processed before it, and citation numbers may be assigned
//! lazily during one citation's render that a later citation's registration
//! then reads. This is why citation processing takes `&mut RunState`
//! end-to-end rather than the `&FinalizedRun` used by bibliography
//! rendering, which requires the complete, final state from all citations.
//! See `docs/specs/EXPLICIT_RENDER_RUN_STATE.md`.
