//! Public scanning entry points + private range scanners.
//!
//! Two layers:
//!
//! - **Range scanners** ([`scan_range`], [`count_range`]) — work on any
//!   contiguous byte range described by `(start, size)`. Shared between
//!   the in-process scanners (which derive `(start, size)` from PE header
//!   fields) and the slice scanners (which derive it from `&[u8]` length).
//! - **Public entry points** — thin wrappers that derive ranges from PE
//!   headers ([`find_in_text`], [`count_in_text`], [`find_in_exec_sections`],
//!   [`count_in_exec_sections`]) or from a slice ([`find_in_slice`],
//!   [`count_in_slice`]) and delegate to the range scanners.
//!
//! All scanners use a single-byte anchor pre-filter: the first non-wildcard
//! byte of the pattern is sampled at every candidate offset before invoking
//! [`matches_at`]. For typical signatures this skips ~99% of candidate
//! offsets without paying the per-byte loop cost.
