//! SIMD-Optimized Operations for Multi-way Merge Algorithms
//!
//! This module provides hardware-accelerated implementations of comparison and merge
//! operations using SIMD (Single Instruction, Multiple Data) instructions:
//!
//! - **AVX2/BMI2 acceleration**: Optimized for x86_64 with modern instruction sets
//! - **Vectorized comparisons**: Process multiple elements simultaneously
//! - **Cache-friendly algorithms**: Optimized memory access patterns
//! - **Fallback implementations**: Safe fallbacks for unsupported hardware
