/// A quantile sketch with relative-error guarantees.
///
/// Based on [DDSketch][ddsketch], `Summary` provides quantiles over an arbitrary distribution of
/// floating-point numbers, including for negative numbers, using a space-efficient sketch that
/// provides relative-error guarantees, regardless of the absolute range between the smallest and
/// larger values.
///
/// `Summary` is similiar to [HDRHistogram][hdrhistogram] in practice, but supports an arbitrary
/// range of values, and supports floating-point numbers.
///
/// Numbers with an absolute value smaller than given `min_value` will be recognized as zeroes.
///
/// Memory usage for `Summary` should be nearly identical to `DDSketch`.
/// [`Summary::estimated_size`] provides a rough estimate of summary size based on the current
/// values that have been added to it.
///
/// As mentioned above, this sketch provides relative-error guarantees across quantiles falling
/// within 0 <= q <= 1, but trades some accuracy at the lowest quantiles as part of the collapsing
/// scheme that allows for automatically handling arbitrary ranges of values, even when the
/// maximum number of bins has been allocated.  Typically, q=0.05 and below is where this error will
/// be noticed, if present.
///
/// For cases when all values are positive, you can simply use [`Summary::min`] in lieu of checking
/// these quantiles, as the minimum value will be closer to the true value.  For cases when values
/// range from negative to positive, the aforementioned collapsing will perturb the estimated true
/// value for quantiles that conceptually fall within this collapsed band.
///
/// For example, for a distribution that spans from -25 to 75, we would intuitively expect q=0 to be
/// -25, q=0.25 to be 0, q=0.5 to be 25, and so on.  Internally, negative numbers and positive
/// numbers are handled in two separate containers.  Based on this example, one container would
/// handle -25 to 0, and another would handle the 0 to 75 range.  As the containers are mapped "back
/// to back", q=0.25 for this hypothetical summary would actually be q=0 within the negative
/// container, which may return an estimated true value that exceeds the relative error guarantees.
///
/// Of course, as these problems are related to the estimation aspect of this data structure, users
/// can allow the summary to allocate more bins to compensate for these edge cases, if desired.
