//! Binned conformal prediction for heteroscedastic prediction intervals.
//!
//! Standard conformal prediction produces constant-width intervals. When
//! forecast errors scale with the predicted magnitude (heteroscedasticity),
//! binning residuals by predicted value yields intervals that are wider where
//! uncertainty is larger and tighter where it is smaller.
//!
//! # Algorithm
//!
//! 1. Compute absolute residuals from calibration forecasts and actuals.
//! 2. Sort (forecast, residual) pairs by forecast value.
//! 3. Split into quantile-based bins of equal count.
//! 4. Compute a per-bin conformal quantile (interval half-width).
//! 5. At prediction time, assign each new forecast to a bin and use that
//!    bin's quantile for the interval.
//!
//! # Fallback behaviour
//!
//! - If a bin has fewer than 3 residuals after splitting, it is merged with
//!   its neighbour.
//! - If total data is too small for the requested number of bins, a single
//!   global quantile is used (equivalent to standard conformal prediction).
