//! INT4 quantization for ultra-compact embedding storage.
//!
//! Two 4-bit values packed per byte (8x compression vs f32).
//! Uses symmetric unsigned quantization: maps [-max_abs, max_abs] to [0, 15].
//!
//! ## Packing format
//!
//! High nibble = even index, low nibble = odd index.
//! For D dimensions, storage is `ceil(D / 2)` bytes.
//!
//! ## Dot product
//!
//! Dot products dequantize before accumulation so the unsigned INT4 offset is
//! handled identically on every target.
