geometry-strategy 0.0.5

//! The [`DistanceStrategy`] trait, default strategy selection, and
//! the [`Reversed`] argument-swapping adapter.
//!
//! Mirrors three pieces of Boost.Geometry that collaborate to make
//! `boost::geometry::distance(a, b)` work for any geometry pair in
//! any coordinate system, with implicit or explicit strategy
//! selection:
//!
//! * `boost/geometry/strategies/distance.hpp` — the
//!   `boost::geometry::strategy::distance` namespace and the per-CS
//!   strategy concept.
//! * `boost/geometry/strategies/distance/services.hpp` — the
//!   `services::default_strategy<G1, G2>` metafunction that picks
//!   the right strategy for a CS pair (Pythagoras for cartesian,
//!   Haversine / Andoyer for spherical / geographic, …).
//! * `boost/geometry/strategies/default_strategy.hpp` plus
//!   `boost/geometry/core/reverse_dispatch.hpp` and the partial
//!   specialisation at
//!   `boost/geometry/algorithms/detail/distance/interface.hpp:53-77`
//!   — the symmetry-collapsing layer that gives you
//!   `distance(segment, point)` for free once you have
//!   `distance(point, segment)`.
//!
//! T21 lands the *trait surface* only — no concrete strategies yet.
//! T22 adds `Pythagoras` / `ComparablePythagoras` and the first
//! [`DefaultDistance`] impls; T23 wires this into the free-function
//! `geometry-algorithm::distance` entry point.

/// A strategy for computing the distance between two geometries.
///
/// Mirrors the per-CS strategy concept declared in
/// `boost/geometry/strategies/distance.hpp` and refined per
/// coordinate system in `strategies/{cartesian,spherical,geographic}/
/// distance_*.hpp`. The Boost concept exposes
/// `apply(g1, g2)` plus a `return_type<G1, G2>` metafunction plus a
/// `comparable_type<...>` sibling; we collapse those three onto one
/// Rust trait via associated types.
///
/// # Associated items
///
/// * [`Self::Out`] — the scalar the distance comes back as.
///   Equivalent to Boost's
///   `boost::geometry::strategy::distance::services::return_type<...>`
///   (`strategies/distance/services.hpp`). Typically the wider of
///   `A`'s and `B`'s coordinate scalars after promotion.
/// * [`Self::Comparable`] — the "skip the sqrt" form of
///   this strategy. For Pythagoras this is `ComparablePythagoras`;
///   for strategies where there is nothing to save by deferring a
///   square root (Andoyer, Vincenty), set `type Comparable = Self;`
///   and the optimiser collapses the indirection. Mirrors
///   `comparable_type<...>` from the same Boost services header.
///
/// # Method shape
///
/// `distance(&self, &A, &B)` mirrors `apply(g1, g2)` on Boost's
/// strategy structs (e.g.
/// `strategies/cartesian/distance_pythagoras.hpp:75-95` for the
/// comparable form, `:99-115` for the sqrt-paying form).
/// `comparable(&self)` mirrors `get_comparable(strategy)` from
/// `strategies/distance/services.hpp`.
