//! Spelling suggestions for unknown words.
//!
//! This module provides fuzzy matching to suggest corrections for misspelled
//! words in the input. It uses Levenshtein distance to find similar words
//! from a known vocabulary list.
//!
//! When the parser encounters an unknown word, this module can suggest
//! "Did you mean X?" alternatives based on edit distance.

/// Compute the Levenshtein edit distance between two strings.
