//! STL-decomposition leaf.
//!
//! On observe: appends `y` to a rolling buffer.
//!
//! On predict: runs STL on the current buffer (trend + seasonal +
//! remainder). Extrapolates: linear trend continuation + cyclic
//! seasonal pattern. Variance from the residual EWMA.
//!
//! This is a batch fitter dressed as a streaming leaf — O(N log N)
//! per predict call, not O(1) per observe. But re-decomposition only
//! happens at predict time (rare compared to observe), so it's
//! practical for the fev-27-style benchmarks. Added post-#180 to
//! close the M-competition monthly/quarterly gap where
//! `LaplaceForecaster` was losing 30-50 % MASE to `AutoTheta`.
