//! Layer 1 (pure-Rust core): TR39 confusable folding. No pyo3.
//!
//! The PyO3 shims for these functions live in `src/py/confusables.rs`; the
//! idiomatic crates.io surface is `crate::api::{normalize_confusables,
//! is_confusable}`. This module is the algorithm, returning the native
//! [`crate::ErrorRepr`] (never a `PyErr`).
//!
//! These fns are `pub(crate)` while [`crate::ErrorRepr`] is `pub(crate)` (avoiding a
//! private-in-public leak). They are promoted to `pub` together with the opaque
//! public `Error` in the first fallible-module extraction sub-PR (#38).

/// digit, so a number in running prose stays a number. `"tr39"` selects upstream's, which
/// folds most of them to a Latin letter (Devanagari zero → `o`) — correct for an
/// identifier skeleton, where the only job is to make two confusable identifiers collide.
/// Three of the 45 divergent rows do not land on a letter: `Ù ` and `Û°` fold to `.`, and
