16/// [`Accurate`](Self::Accurate) is the default and the kernel every published
17/// benchmark quotes: the `islow`-class Loeffler IDCT, bit-comparable to
18/// libjpeg-turbo's default. [`Fast`](Self::Fast) opts into the AAN
19/// `ifast`-class kernel — roughly an eighth of the multiplies, at a small,
20/// bounded pixel accuracy cost (and the documented `ifast` degeneration at
21/// very high quality factors). Fast is advisory: paths without a fast kernel
22/// (non-NEON tiers, hardware V4L2/nvJPEG decoders, PNG) use their normal
23/// accurate path.

40/// without a breaking API change to

52/// Reusable image decoder with internal scratch buffers.
53///
54/// Create one `ImageDecoder` at program initialisation and pass it to
55/// [`ImageLoad::load_image`](crate::ImageLoad::load_image) in the hot loop.
56/// The scratch buffers grow to the high-water mark and are reused across calls
57/// — no per-frame allocations after the first few frames.
58///
59/// By default the decoder produces the source's native format and configures
60/// the destination tensor's dimensions + pixel format accordingly (JPEG →
61/// `Nv12`/`Nv16`/`Nv24`/`Grey`, PNG → `Rgb`/`Rgba`/`Grey`).
62/// [`set_output_format`](Self::set_output_format) opts a JPEG decode into a
63/// fused `Rgb` or `Nv12` output, where the colour conversion or chroma
64/// downsample happens at the MCU write stage instead of in a second pass. The
65/// decoder never rotates or resizes; use `ImageProcessor::convert()` for that.
66///
67/// # Example

70/// use edgefirst_codec::{ImageDecoder, ImageLoad};
71/// use edgefirst_tensor::{CpuAccess, Tensor, TensorTrait, TensorMemory, PixelFormat};
72///
73/// let mut decoder = ImageDecoder::new();
74/// // Allocate a buffer large enough for the biggest expected image. The
75/// // decoder CPU-writes the pixels, so declare `CpuAccess::Write`.
76/// let mut tensor = Tensor::<u8>::image(1920, 1080, PixelFormat::Nv12, Some(TensorMemory::Mem),
77/// CpuAccess::Write)
78/// .expect("alloc");
79///
80/// for _ in 0..100 {
81/// let frame = std::fs::read("frame.jpg").unwrap();
82/// let _info = tensor.load_image(&mut decoder, &frame);
