//! Detect and strip machine-targeted markup from HTML.
//!
//! Five detector kinds, all regex-based for now (the channels we target
//! are flat-text or attribute-shaped, not deeply nested DOM):
//!
//! 1. `AiAddressedComment` — HTML comments whose body contains tokens like
//!    "machine intelligence", "AI agent", "machine-readable".
//! 2. `MachineAttributePayload` — `data-dim`, `data-ai`, `data-mcp`,
//!    `data-agent`, `data-machine` attribute values.
//! 3. `MachineClassElement` — opening tags carrying `class="m"` (a
//!    common "machine class" convention for tagging structured spans).
//!    The visible text is kept; only the marker is reported.
//! 4. `HiddenInlineStyle` — `style="display:none"` containers with
//!    readable text. Severity `Block` because the text was deliberately
//!    addressed to a non-human audience.
//! 5. `AriaHiddenText` — `aria-hidden="true"` containers with readable
//!    text. Severity `Block` for the same reason.
//!
//! ## Public API
//!
//! - [`detect`] — non-destructive scan, returns a [`DetectionReport`].
//! - [`sanitize`] — strip-and-report. Returns `(cleaned_html, report)`.
//!
//! Sanitisation rules are deliberately conservative:
//! - AI-addressed comments → removed entirely.
//! - `display:none` / `aria-hidden="true"` text → removed entirely.
//! - Machine-only attributes → removed from the host element; element
//!   itself is kept so the visible text still renders.
//! - `class="m"` → left intact; the visible text was for humans, the
//!   class is just a styling hook. The agent-only payload travels in the
//!   `data-*` attributes that this pass already strips.
