//! Prefix-cache-aware inference engine wrapper.
//!
//! [`PrefixCachedEngine`] wraps an [`InferenceEngine`] and transparently
//! intercepts the prefill phase: identical prompt prefixes (e.g. a shared
//! system prompt) are served from the KV-cache trie rather than being
//! re-processed by the model, cutting prefill cost to near-zero for cached
//! prefixes.
//!
//! ## Usage
//!
//! ```rust,no_run
//! use oxibonsai_core::config::Qwen3Config;
//! use oxibonsai_runtime::engine::InferenceEngine;
//! use oxibonsai_runtime::sampling::SamplingParams;
//! use oxibonsai_runtime::prefix_cache_engine::PrefixCachedEngine;
//!
//! let config = Qwen3Config::tiny_test();
//! let engine = InferenceEngine::new(config, SamplingParams::default(), 42);
//! let mut cached = PrefixCachedEngine::new(engine, 64);
//!
//! let tokens = cached.generate(&[1, 2, 3, 4], &SamplingParams::default());
//! let stats = cached.cache_stats();
//! println!("hit rate: {:.1}%", stats.hit_rate * 100.0);
//! ```
