//! Pure-Rust reader for Lean's per-module `.ilean` reference indices.
//!
//! `lake build` writes one `.ilean` file per module under
//! `<project>/.lake/build/lib/lean/`. An `.ilean` is the LSP reference index:
//! for every name it records the definition site and all usage sites *within
//! that module's source*. Reading it answers "all references to a
//! fully-qualified name `N`" in milliseconds — no Lean runtime, no
//! re-elaboration — because the format is plain JSON (`Json.compress`) with
//! names stored as strings. This module therefore lives in the parent crate
//! and links nothing from Lean.
//!
//! The boundary is one query: [`references_to`] takes a project root and a
//! fully-qualified name and returns a [`ReferenceIndex`] of resolved hits
//! (source file + LSP range + def/ref kind). Everything else — file
//! enumeration, the compact-array JSON codecs, the version gate, and
//! module→source-path resolution — is hidden. The raw JSON types are private;
//! callers never see them.
//!
//! "Index absent / stale" is reported as **data**, not an error: a project
//! that was never built yields [`IndexStatus::NotBuilt`]; a single malformed
//! or unreadable `.ilean` is skipped and counted, never fatal. The consumer
//! (`find_references`) maps those signals onto the response envelope.
//!
//! Schema reference (Lean v4.31.0-rc1):
//! `src/lean/Lean/Data/Lsp/Internal.lean` (`RefIdent`, `RefInfo`, `ModuleRefs`),
//! `src/lean/Lean/Server/References.lean` (`Ilean` / `Ilean.load`).
