cli.rs

//! `ferrox-server`'s argument surface: the llama.cpp-shaped command line
//! both front ends parse, and the environment it lowers to.
//!
//! Split out of `lib.rs` under this repo's "a new file beats a new
//! section" rule, with no behaviour change: the struct, the
//! multi-character short-option rewrite (`-ngl`, `-np`, `-hf`), the
//! device/GPU-layer value types and `apply_cli_overrides` all moved
//! verbatim, along with the tests that cover them.
//!
//! One rule this module holds to, because the repo has already paid for
//! breaking it: **a flag that is accepted must reach the thing it
//! names.** `ferrox bench --n-gpu-layers 0` was documented as forcing
//! CPU and did not, because the backend was decided before the flag was
//! read. Every override here runs in `apply_cli_overrides`, *before*
//! the runtime and the model loader read the environment.
