//! Lightweight host tensor data model and metadata-only views.
//!
//! `tenferro-tensor-core` owns backend-independent tensor metadata and
//! host-resident contiguous tensor storage. It does not own execution backends,
//! backend buffers, GPU handles, provider selection, or materializing kernels.
//! Runtime/backend-capable `TypedTensor<T, R>` lives in `tenferro-tensor`.
//! This crate exposes rank/layout metadata plus host-only tensor adapters.
//!
//! # Examples
//!
//! ```rust
//! use tenferro_tensor_core::{HostTensor, Rank, SliceSpec, TensorLayout};
//!
//! let tensor = HostTensor::from_vec_col_major(vec![2, 3], vec![1.0_f64, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, 6.0])?;
//! let view = tensor
//!     .as_view()
//!     .slice_view(&[
//!         SliceSpec { start: 0, end: 2, step: 1 },
//!         SliceSpec { start: 1, end: 3, step: 1 },
//!     ])?;
//!
//! assert_eq!(view.shape(), &[2, 2]);
//! assert_eq!(view.as_slice()?, &[3.0, 4.0, 5.0, 6.0]);
//!
//! let layout = TensorLayout::<Rank<2>>::compact([2, 3])?;
//! let transposed = layout.transpose_view([1, 0])?;
//! assert_eq!(transposed.shape(), &[3, 2]);
//! # Ok::<(), tenferro_tensor_core::Error>(())
