/// Inside Bar Counter — counts consecutive inside bars.
///
/// An **inside bar** is a bar whose high is less than or equal to the previous bar's high
/// *and* whose low is greater than or equal to the previous bar's low. The bar's entire
/// range is "inside" the prior bar.
///
/// - **Positive** output: the current run of consecutive inside bars.
/// - **Zero**: the current bar is not an inside bar (it broke the prior range).
///
/// Returns [`SignalValue::Unavailable`] on the first bar (no previous bar to compare).
///
/// Consecutive inside bars represent price compression. A sequence of 3+ inside bars
/// often precedes a volatility expansion or breakout.
///
/// # Example
/// ```rust
/// use fin_primitives::signals::indicators::InsideBarCounter;
/// use fin_primitives::signals::Signal;
/// let ibc = InsideBarCounter::new("ibc");
/// assert_eq!(ibc.period(), 1);
/// ```
