//! Deterministic text chunking for the packing stage.
//!
//! No chunker exists anywhere else in the workspace (every other "chunk" is
//! vector batching), so this is the reference implementation. Guarantees:
//!
//! - **Deterministic**: same text + same policy ⇒ same chunks, same ranges.
//! - **UTF-8 safe**: never cuts inside a multi-byte char.
//! - **Fence-atomic**: never cuts inside a triple-backtick-fenced code block — a fence
//!   larger than [`ChunkPolicy::max_chunk_bytes`] stays one oversized chunk
//!   rather than being broken (the packing layer decides its fate whole).
//! - **Covering**: without overlap, the chunk ranges partition the input —
//!   concatenating them reconstructs the text byte for byte.
