//! MRU (Most Recently Used) cache replacement policy.
//!
//! Implements the MRU algorithm, which evicts the **most** recently accessed entry
//! when capacity is reached. This is the opposite of LRU and is useful for
//! specific cyclic access patterns where the most recently accessed item is
//! least likely to be accessed again soon.
//!

//! ## Key Components
//!
//! - [`MruCore`]: Main MRU cache implementation
//!
//! ## Operations
//!
//! | Operation   | Time   | Notes                                      |
//! |-------------|--------|--------------------------------------------|
//! | `get`       | O(1)   | Moves accessed item to MRU (head)          |
//! | `insert`    | O(1)*  | *Amortized, may trigger evictions          |
//! | `contains`  | O(1)   | Index lookup only                          |
//! | `len`       | O(1)   | Returns total entries                      |
//! | `clear`     | O(n)   | Clears all structures                      |
//!
//! ## Algorithm Properties
//!
//! - **Cyclic Pattern Handling**: Good for cyclic access patterns where newest item won't be accessed soon
//! - **Opposite of LRU**: Evicts most recent instead of least recent
//! - **Niche Use Case**: Not a general-purpose policy
//!
//! ## Use Cases
//!
//! - Cyclic file scanning patterns
//! - Sequential processing where recently processed items won't be needed again
//! - Specific database query patterns with known access sequences
//!
//! ## Example Usage
//!
//! ```
//! use cachekit::policy::mru::MruCore;
//!
//! // Create MRU cache with capacity 10
//! let mut cache = MruCore::new(10);
//!
//! // Insert items
//! cache.insert(1, 100);
//! cache.insert(2, 200);
//! cache.insert(3, 300);
//!
//! // Access moves to MRU (head) - making it first to be evicted!
//! assert_eq!(cache.get(&1), Some(&100));
//!
//! // When cache is full, item 1 (most recently accessed) will be evicted first
//! for i in 4..=10 {
//!     cache.insert(i, i * 10);
//! }
//!
//! assert_eq!(cache.len(), 10);
//! ```
//!
//! ## Thread Safety
//!
//! - [`MruCore`]: Not thread-safe, designed for single-threaded use
//! - For concurrent access, wrap in external synchronization
//!
//! ## Implementation Notes
//!
//! - Uses doubly-linked list with head=MRU, tail=LRU
//! - Eviction happens from head (MRU) instead of tail (LRU)
//! - Accessed items move to head (MRU position)
//! - New items are inserted at head (MRU position)
//!
//! ## When to Use
//!
//! **Use MRU when:**
//! - Access patterns are cyclic and predictable
//! - Recently accessed items are unlikely to be accessed again soon
//! - You understand the specific workload characteristics
//!
//! **Avoid MRU when:**
//! - General-purpose caching (use LRU, SLRU, or S3-FIFO instead)
//! - Temporal locality is important
//! - Unsure about access patterns
