//! Animated voxel-sprite clips (`.rvc`) — a "GIF/MP4 for voxel models".
//!
//! A [`VoxelClip`] is a fixed-bounding-box sequence of voxel frames,
//! encoded as **keyframes + inter-frame diffs** (like video I/P frames),
//! for effects such as flame, spells, and muzzle flashes. See
//! `PORTING-VOXEL-CLIP.md` for the full design (stage VCL).
//!
//! ## Frame representation
//!
//! A frame is stored in the same **dense-column layout** the GPU sprite
//! model uses ([`roxlap-gpu`'s `SpriteModel`]): a per-`(x, y)`-column
//! occupancy bitmask plus per-column ascending-z colour runs. Columns
//! are indexed `col = x + y * dims[0]`; a column's occupancy is
//! [`occ_words_per_col`](VoxelClip::occ_words_per_col) u32 words, bit
//! `z & 31` of word `z >> 5`. This makes GPU upload a field move (no
//! bucket-sort) and makes diffs clean (per column). Surface-normal
//! `dir` indices are **recomputed at [`decode`](VoxelClip::decode)** from
//! the reconstructed occupancy, so the on-disk codec carries only
//! occupancy + colour.
//!
//! ## On-disk format (`.rvc`)
//!
//! ```text
//! magic   b"RVCL"
//! version u16 = 2
//! chunks  [tag(4) | flags(u8) | len(u32) | payload]  until EOF; unknown
//!         tags preserved. flags bit0 = payload is raw-deflated, stored as
//!         raw_len(u32) | deflate_bytes (and `len` counts that). Each chunk
//!         is deflated only when it shrinks; small ones stay raw.
//!   META : dims[3] u32, pivot[3] f32, voxel_world_size f32,
//!          loop_mode u8, default_frame_ms u32, frame_count u32
//!   FRMS : per frame: kind u8 {Key=0, Delta=1}; Key = full frame
//!          (occupancy + color_offsets + colors, each u32-len-prefixed);
//!          Delta = changed_count u32 + per changed column
//!          (col u32, occ_words_per_col × u32, color_run len+u32s)
//!   TIME : optional per-frame durations (frame_count × u32 ms)
//! ```
//!
//! Compression is per-chunk deflate (`miniz_oxide`): the occupancy
//! bitmasks + colour runs compress well, while `META` / small chunks stay
//! raw. **v1** (no `flags` byte, every payload raw) still parses.
