//! Pluggable dispatch strategies for assigning elevators to stops.
//!
//! Strategies express preferences as scores on `(car, stop)` pairs via
//! [`DispatchStrategy::rank`](crate::dispatch::DispatchStrategy::rank). The
//! dispatch system then runs an optimal bipartite assignment (Kuhn–Munkres /
//! Hungarian algorithm) so coordination — one car per hall call — is a library
//! invariant, not a per-strategy responsibility. Cars left unassigned are
//! handed to [`DispatchStrategy::fallback`](crate::dispatch::DispatchStrategy::fallback)
//! for per-car policy (idle, park, etc.).
//!
//! # Example: custom dispatch strategy
//!
//! ```rust
//! use elevator_core::dispatch::RankContext;
//! use elevator_core::prelude::*;
//!
//! struct AlwaysFirstStop;
//!
//! impl DispatchStrategy for AlwaysFirstStop {
//!     fn rank(&mut self, ctx: &RankContext<'_>) -> Option<f64> {
//!         // Prefer the group's first stop; everything else is unavailable.
//!         if Some(&ctx.stop) == ctx.group.stop_entities().first() {
//!             Some((ctx.car_position - ctx.stop_position).abs())
//!         } else {
//!             None
//!         }
//!     }
//! }
//!
//! let sim = SimulationBuilder::demo()
//!     .dispatch(AlwaysFirstStop)
//!     .build()
//!     .unwrap();

/// Whether assigning `ctx.car` to `ctx.stop` is worth ranking.

/// `rank` implementation:
///
/// 1. **Servability** — capacity, full-load bypass, and the loading-phase
///    boarding filter. A pair that can't exit an aboard rider, board a
///    waiter, or answer a rider-less hall call is a no-op move (and a
///    zero-cost one when the car is already parked there) which would
///    otherwise stall doors against unservable demand.
/// 2. **Path discipline** (only when `respect_aboard_path` is `true`) —
///    refuses pickups that would pull a car carrying routed riders off
///    the direct path to every aboard rider's destination. Without it, a
///    stream of closer-destination hall calls can indefinitely preempt a
///    farther aboard rider's delivery (the "never reaches the
///    passenger's desired stop" loop).
///
/// Strategies with their own direction discipline (SCAN, LOOK, ETD,
/// Destination) pass `respect_aboard_path: false` because their
/// sweep/direction terms already rule out backtracks. Strategies without
/// it (`NearestCar`, RSR) pass `respect_aboard_path: true`. Custom
/// strategies should pass `true` unless they enforce direction
/// discipline themselves.
///
/// Aboard riders without a published route (game-managed manual riders)

/// them, so the path check trivially passes when no aboard rider has a
