//! Runtime hints passed from the executor to codecs and filters.
//!
//! An [`ExecutionContext`] carries advisory information — today only a
//! thread budget — that codecs can use to tune their internal
//! parallelism. Codecs that don't care can ignore it; the default trait
//! method on [`Decoder`](../../oxideav_codec/trait.Decoder.html) /
//! [`Encoder`](../../oxideav_codec/trait.Encoder.html) is a no-op.

/// Advisory runtime information handed to a codec after construction.
///
/// The struct is deliberately tiny for now. New fields can be added
/// without breaking API consumers that already construct the value via
/// [`ExecutionContext::serial`] or [`ExecutionContext::with_threads`].
