//! Shared MPEG/Annex-B start-code scanning helpers.
//!
//! H.264, HEVC, MPEG-2 and the MPEG-2 Program Stream demuxer all locate the
//! 3-byte `00 00 01` start-code prefix to delimit NAL units / PES units. A
//! single memchr-backed implementation lives here so every caller gets the
//! same SIMD-accelerated scan instead of a hand-rolled byte-by-byte loop.

/// Find the position of the next start code (`00 00 01`) at or after `from`.
///
/// Backed by `memchr::memmem::find` for SIMD-accelerated bytestring search. On
/// AVX2-capable x86_64 this runs several times faster than a byte-by-byte scan;
/// on a 200 KB UHD HEVC frame the saving is in the hundreds of microseconds per
/// call. The reported offset is the start of the `00 00 01` triple, so a 4-byte
/// `00 00 00 01` start code is reported at the second `00`.
