parlov-elicit 0.3.0

Elicitation engine: strategy selection and probe plan generation for parlov.
Documentation
//! `IfMatchElicitation` -- probes with a bogus `If-Match` precondition header.
//!
//! Sends `If-Match: "bogus-etag"` on the probe request. Per RFC 9110 S13.1.1 a
//! server MUST respond 412 when the precondition fails on an existing resource,
//! but returns 404 for a nonexistent one. The differential reveals existence.
