//! Post-decoder PCM enhancement — optional classical DSP filter chain
//! applied to decoded PCM before it leaves the [`crate::vocoder::Vocoder`].
//!
//! Spec-faithful synthesis emits PCM directly from the BABA-A §1.12
//! pipeline. Real LMR audio chains add post-processing between the
//! vocoder output and the speaker (the TI TLV320AIC33 codec on the
//! Motorola APX, for example, runs PCM through de-emphasis →
//! 2-biquad cascade → digital volume → DAC). This module exposes a
//! similar chain as an opt-in [`EnhancementMode`].
//!
//! [`EnhancementMode::None`] is the default and bypasses the chain
//! entirely — bytes from `decode_bits` match the spec-faithful path.
//! [`EnhancementMode::Classical`] runs a small set of stages tuned for
//! the 8 kHz / mono / narrow-band voice content the vocoder produces:
//!
//! - **High-pass / peaking biquad cascade** — two biquads matching
//!   AIC33's LB1/LB2 budget. Defaults: HPF at 250 Hz to roll off
//!   sub-speaker rumble, peaking at 2.5 kHz / +3 dB for intelligibility.
//! - **Soft-knee compressor** — playback-side DRC. AIC33's on-chip AGC
//!   is record-side only, so any decoded-audio loudness control has to
//!   live here.
//! - **Boundary smoothing** — short cosine fade at frame seams when
//!   transitioning out of synth-side mute (Repeat/Mute → Use), to
//!   suppress click/pop. Mirrors AIC33's soft-mute / soft-unmute around
//!   filter-coefficient changes.
//!
//! All defaults are starting points subject to A/B against the existing
//! 5-vector PESQ harness. None of this is on the spec path; consumers
//! that need bit-for-bit BABA-A output keep [`EnhancementMode::None`].
