//! Generic kernel selection and dispatch infrastructure for CRC algorithms.
//!
//! This module provides shared infrastructure for kernel selection that works
//! across all CRC widths (16, 24, 32, 64). The patterns are identical:
//!
//! 1. Check if `len < small_threshold` → use portable
//! 2. Check forced backend override
//! 3. Check CPU capabilities and thresholds → select SIMD tier
//!
//! # Kernel Tier System
//!
//! CRC implementations follow a tiered kernel selection model. Higher tiers
//! offer better performance but have stricter hardware requirements.
//!
//! | Tier | Name | Description |
//! |------|------|-------------|
//! | 0 | Reference | Bitwise implementation - always available, for verification |
//! | 1 | Portable | Table-based slice-by-N - always available, production fallback |
//! | 2 | HW CRC | Native CRC instructions - CRC-32/32C only on x86_64 (SSE4.2), aarch64 (CRC ext) |
//! | 3 | Folding | PCLMUL/PMULL/VPMSUM/VGFM/Zbc - carryless multiply folding |
//! | 4 | Wide | VPCLMUL/EOR3/SVE2/Zvbc - wide SIMD / advanced folding |
//!
//! ## Tier Availability by CRC Width
//!
//! | CRC Width | Tier 0 | Tier 1 | Tier 2 | Tier 3 | Tier 4 |
//! |-----------|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|
//! | CRC-16 | Yes | Yes | No | Yes | Yes* |
//! | CRC-24 | Yes | Yes | No | Yes | Yes* |
//! | CRC-32/32C | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes |
//! | CRC-64 | Yes | Yes | No | Yes | Yes |
//!
//! *CRC-16/CRC-24 Tier 4 is x86_64 VPCLMUL only.
//!
//! # Design Philosophy
//!
//! Rather than using traits (which add vtable overhead) or generics (which
//! complicate the code), we provide:
//!
//! - Shared constants and stream-to-index mapping
//! - Type aliases and dispatch macros for each CRC width
//! - Name selection helpers that work with static arrays
//!
//! This keeps the code explicit and allows each CRC module to define its
//! own kernel arrays and selection logic while reusing common patterns.

/// Calculate the maximum stream count supported for a given buffer length.
///
/// Each additional stream level requires roughly 2× the minimum buffer size
/// to amortize the merge overhead.
///
/// # Arguments
///
/// * `len` - Input buffer length
/// * `max_streams` - Maximum streams allowed by config
/// * `fold_bytes` - Bytes per fold block (e.g., 128 for CRC-64)
/// * `stream_thresholds` - Array of `(min_streams, min_bytes)` pairs, ordered descending
///
/// # Returns
///
/// The stream count to use (1, 2, 4, or 7/8 depending on architecture).
