//! Counterfactual savings metering (#701) — provider-authoritative receipts.
//!
//! Local tokenizer counts (`o200k_base`) are an *estimate* of what a request
//! would have cost without lean-ctx. Anthropic's `count_tokens` endpoint is
//! **free** and takes the identical body shape, so for each rewritten
//! `/v1/messages` request the proxy can fire a probe with the original,
//! uncompressed body concurrently with the real forward and read back the
//! provider-counted answer: "this exact request would have billed N input
//! tokens". Paired with the billed `usage` block of the same response, that is
//! a confound-free, provider-authoritative saving per request — the
//! methodology pxpipe's FAQ documents, adopted per #701.
//!
//! Isolation guarantees:
//! - The probe **never** mutates, delays or fails the forwarded request: it is
//!   spawned as a detached task and its result lands in a lock-free slot the
//!   usage recorder reads at response end (streams end seconds later, so the
//!   probe has long finished; a slow probe merely degrades that row to the
//!   local estimate).
//! - Opt-in (`proxy.counterfactual_metering`, default off) and fired only for
//!   requests the proxy actually rewrote — an untouched body's billed input
//!   *is* its counterfactual, no probe needed.
