//! GJK (Gilbert-Johnson-Keerthi) distance algorithm and EPA (Expanding Polytope Algorithm).
//!
//! # GJK Algorithm
//!
//! Determines the minimum distance between two convex shapes using only their
//! **support functions** — no explicit geometry representation required.
//!
//! The key insight: two shapes overlap if and only if their *Minkowski difference*
//! contains the origin. GJK iteratively builds a simplex (point, line, triangle,
//! tetrahedron) on the Minkowski difference boundary, seeking to enclose the origin.
//!
//! - If the origin is enclosed → shapes overlap → use EPA for depth
//! - If a new support point fails to pass the origin → separated → return distance
//!
//! Complexity: O(k) iterations where k is typically 4-20 for practical shapes.
//!
//! # EPA Algorithm
//!
//! When GJK detects overlap, EPA expands the terminal simplex into a polytope,
//! iteratively finding the closest face to the origin. The closest face's normal
//! and distance give the **penetration normal** and **penetration depth**.
//!
//! # Usage
//!
//! ```rust
//! use featherstone::gjk::{gjk_distance, GjkResult, Support};
//! use nalgebra::Vector3;
//!
//! // Implement Support for your shape, or use the built-in SphereSupport/BoxSupport
//! ```
//!
//! Used for [`crate::collider::ColliderShape::ConvexHull`] and mixed-shape pairs where
//! analytical contact formulas are not available.
