/// A shared allowance of retries that bounds how much extra load retrying
/// adds while a provider keeps failing.
///
/// Without a budget, every caller retries every retryable error up to
/// [`max_attempts`](super::RetryPolicy::max_attempts), so a full outage
/// multiplies the load on the failing provider (three times with the
/// default policy). A budget is a bucket of tokens that every retry draws
/// from and successes refill, so once a provider has been failing for a
/// while, callers stop retrying and fail fast; first attempts are never
/// held back. Each [`RetryingProvider`](super::RetryingProvider) owns one by
/// default (see its [retry budget](super::RetryingProvider#retry-budget)
/// docs); share one across wrappers with
/// [`RetryPolicy::budget`](super::RetryPolicy::budget).
///
/// It follows the retry quota of the AWS SDKs, with the costs the AWS SDKs
/// and Tools Reference Guide documents for its standard retry strategy as
/// of 2026:
///
/// - the bucket starts full, at [`DEFAULT_CAPACITY`](Self::DEFAULT_CAPACITY)
///   (500) tokens, or the [`capacity`](Self::capacity) you set;
/// - a retry after a rate limit ([`Error::RateLimited`]) costs 5 tokens,
///   any other retry 14;
/// - when the bucket holds less than a retry costs, the retry is denied and
///   the error is returned unchanged;
/// - a call that succeeds on a retry refunds that retry's cost, and a call
///   that succeeds on its first attempt adds 1 token, never beyond the
///   capacity;
/// - the first attempt of a call never needs a token.
///
/// The costs and the refund are fixed: a drained budget recovers one
/// transient retry per 14 first-try successes. The budget applies after every other rule of the
/// policy: the classifier (server retry directive included), the attempt
/// limit, and the retry hint rule decide first, and a budget only ever
/// denies a retry they allowed.
///
/// Clones share their tokens, so one budget can span many wrappers. The
/// tokens live in memory: a budget bounds the retries of one process (one
/// isolate on Cloudflare Workers), not of a fleet. By default each provider
/// of a fallback has its own, so an outage of one does not use up the
/// other's retries; share one across both sides to bound retries for the
/// whole stack:
///
/// ```
/// # #[cfg(feature = "mock")] {
/// use allama::wrappers::{FallbackProvider, RetryBudget, RetryPolicy, RetryingProvider};
/// # use allama::mock::MockProvider;
/// # let (primary, backup) = (MockProvider::with_text("a"), MockProvider::with_text("b"));
/// # let (primary2, backup2) = (primary.clone(), backup.clone());
///
/// // A budget per provider: the default.
/// let separate = FallbackProvider::new(
///     RetryingProvider::new(primary, RetryPolicy::default()),
///     RetryingProvider::new(backup, RetryPolicy::default()),
/// );
///
/// // One budget for the whole stack.
/// let budget = RetryBudget::new();
/// let policy = RetryPolicy::new().budget(budget.clone());
/// let shared = FallbackProvider::new(
///     RetryingProvider::new(primary2, policy.clone()),
///     RetryingProvider::new(backup2, policy),
/// );
/// # let _ = (shared, separate); }
/// ```
///
/// Set the capacity before sharing a budget:
/// [`capacity`](Self::capacity) returns a new, full budget that shares
/// nothing with clones made earlier.
///
/// A custom retry wrapper follows the same rules: it takes its budget from
/// [`RetryPolicy::make_budget`](super::RetryPolicy::make_budget) once, when
/// it is built, calls [`try_acquire`](Self::try_acquire) before each retry
/// the policy allows, keeps the [`RetryPermit`] it returns, and hands it to
/// [`record_success`](Self::record_success) when the call succeeds.
