//! Scan-engine compilation and match iteration for [`super::SimpleMatcher`].
//!
//! This module owns the Aho-Corasick automata that power Pass 1 (pattern scan) of the
//! two-pass matching pipeline. Two independent engines may be built:
//!
//! - **ASCII engine** ([`AsciiMatcher`]) — scans byte-wise over ASCII-only text. With the
//!   `dfa` feature enabled and pattern count ≤ [`AC_DFA_PATTERN_THRESHOLD`], this uses the
//!   `aho-corasick` crate's DFA for maximum throughput. Otherwise, it falls back to
//!   `daachorse`'s bytewise double-array Aho-Corasick.
//!
//! - **Non-ASCII engine** ([`NonAsciiMatcher`]) — scans character-wise using `daachorse`'s
//!   charwise automaton. When both ASCII and non-ASCII patterns exist, this engine is built
//!   over the **full** pattern set (not just the non-ASCII ones) so a single charwise pass
//!   can cover all patterns when the input text contains multi-byte characters.
//!
//! The [`ScanPlan`] struct bundles both engines together with the [`PatternIndex`] that
//! maps raw automaton values back to rule metadata.
