bb-runtime 0.3.3

Sans-IO engine for the bytesandbrains framework — Node, Engine, Framework, Backends, roles, snapshot, runtime-side syscalls.
//! `bb::Index` — Contract trait for vector indexes.
//!
//! Each method takes the engine's `&mut RuntimeResourceRef<'_>` ctx
//! plus a [`CompletionHandle`] AND returns [`ContractResponse`]. The
//! impl declares per call:
//!
//! - [`ContractResponse::Now(Ok(value))`] — result is ready inline.
//!   The handle is ignored; the framework returns
//!   `DispatchResult::Immediate(vec![(port, Box::new(value) as Box<dyn SlotValue>)])`
//!   — `value` lands in the slot table as `Box<dyn SlotValue>` with no
//!   serialization at this boundary — and skips the park /
//!   ingress-drain cycle.
//! - [`ContractResponse::Later`] — the impl retained the handle (sent
//!   it to a worker thread, spawned a tokio task, queued a remote
//!   RPC). The framework returns `DispatchResult::Async(cmd_id)` and
//!   parks the dispatched op until the user calls
//!   `handle.complete(result)` from off-thread.
//!
//! `ctx` is the per-dispatch runtime surface: impls reach their
//! declared `#[depends(...)]` siblings through
//! [`RuntimeResourceRef::dependency`] (e.g. an index that delegates
//! distance math to a bound `Backend`).
