//! Optional, opt-in concept/synonym query expansion for lexical search.
//!
//! Lexical FTS matches only the literal query tokens, so a concept query
//! ("bug") never retrieves a document that records the same concept under a
//! different word ("error", "failure"). This module expands each query term
//! with a curated set of synonyms drawn from a static, alphabetically-grouped
//! map. Expansion is:
//!
//! - **Opt-in** — driven by `SearchOptions.expand_concepts`; the default
//!   lexical and hybrid behavior is byte-for-byte unchanged when the flag is
//!   off.
//! - **Additive / OR-combined** — synonyms join the term list, they never
//!   replace it. Downstream `quoted_fts_terms` already OR-joins terms, so the
//!   FTS match set only ever grows and bm25 keeps literal-term documents ranked
//!   above synonym-only ones (the original term still scores on more columns).
//! - **Order-preserving and deduplicated** — the original terms keep their
//!   position at the front; synonyms are appended in a stable order with
//!   case-insensitive dedup so a term and its own synonym set never double-count.
//!
//! This is a recall aid for the lexical path, not a replacement for the
//! embedding model: it has no notion of context and only relates words present
//! in the curated map.

/// Curated, bidirectional concept clusters. Every word in a cluster expands to
/// every other word in that cluster. Clusters are intentionally conservative
/// (engineering-domain near-synonyms only) so expansion improves recall without
/// dragging in unrelated senses. All entries are lowercase ASCII; matching is
/// case-insensitive.
