2//! DBSCAN density-based clustering.
3//!
4//! Optimizations:
5//! - Uses KD-tree spatial index for O(n log n) neighbor lookup when
6//!   dimensionality ≤ 20 and metric is Euclidean.
7//! - Falls back to brute-force O(n²) for high-dimensional data or
8//!   non-Euclidean metrics.
9//! - Uses squared Euclidean distance (avoids sqrt).
10//! - Supports configurable distance metrics (Euclidean, Manhattan, Cosine).
11//! - `predict()` assigns new points to the nearest core point's cluster.
