//! Autotune: **one source per op, the schedule picked per device.**
//!
//! The "collapse" program. A backend used to fork a kernel per device to hand-tune the schedule
//! (tile size, vector width, unroll factor, cube dim). That is the "same op, N forks, N drifting
//! numeric behaviors" bug class the DSL exists to kill. The DSL already gives ONE source lowered to
//! every backend; autotune closes the loop on the schedule: expose the schedule as `#[comptime]`
//! knobs on that one source (each knob value is a distinct compiled kernel — cubecl monomorphizes on
//! comptime state), enumerate a small VARIANT set, time each once per `(device, op, shape-class)`, and
//! cache the winner. No forks: the source is one; only the chosen comptime tuple differs per device.
//!
//! # The algebra (three orthogonal values)
//!
//!   * [`Variant`] — a named schedule of an op: a closure that launches it and returns `(output, ms)`.
//!     The closure takes an iteration count so the SAME closure both benchmarks (many iters) and
//!     executes (one iter). This is the crate's established `*_bench` shape (`-> (Vec<f32>, f64)`).
//!   * [`Tuned`] — the ergonomic builder that collects variants for one `(op, shape-key)` and runs.
//!     Reads like `fuse::Fuse` / `dag::Tape`: fluent, no macro, no ceremony.
//!   * [`Tuner`] — the cache: an in-memory `(device, op, key) -> winner` map backed by a per-device
//!     on-disk file under the XDG cache dir. Pure value; takes an explicit cache root, so it is fully
//!     unit-testable without a GPU, without env, and without global state. The process-wide default
//!     ([`global`]) is XDG-rooted.
//!
//! # Why first-party, not `cubecl_runtime::tune`
//!
//! cubecl-runtime HAS an autotuner (`LocalTuner`/`TunableSet`/`Tunable`) and it was studied. It is the
//! wrong fit for three concrete reasons, not NIH: (1) it is re-exported only from `cubecl_runtime`, so
//! adopting it forces a *second* engine crate into a facade that is architected so only `Cargo.toml`
//! names the engine; (2) its persistent cache lives under `target/` (via the `dirs` crate + an MD5
//! checksum + serde), not the XDG path this layer is required to use; (3) its `TuneInputs::At<'a>` GAT +
//! `for<'a> Fn(I::At<'a>)` + `KeyGenerator`/`InputGenerator` traits are a lot of surface for "pick the
//! fastest of N named closures." The concepts below are deliberately the same as cubecl's, just sized
//! to this crate and pointed at XDG — a thin analog, not a new philosophy.
//!
//! # Proven on the CPU runtime (no GPU)
//!
//! [`norm::rms_norm_autotuned`](crate::norm::rms_norm_autotuned) and
//! [`quant::matvec_q8_dp4a_autotuned`](crate::quant::matvec_q8_dp4a_autotuned) each expose one comptime-
//! knobbed source with a 4-variant set. The tests show: every variant is bit-exact vs the CPU oracle,
//! the tuner selects + caches a winner (in-memory AND on-disk), a second call skips the benchmarking of
//! the losers, and a fresh `Tuner` reloads the winner from disk. Timing on the CPU runtime is enough to
//! prove the mechanism; a GPU run additionally makes the *winner* meaningful (on CPU the schedules are
//! near-equivalent, so the selected winner is arbitrary-but-stable — the point under test is the
//! select/cache machinery, not which schedule wins).
