//! `escriba-runtime` — editor state machine.
//!
//! Wraps everything: `BufferSet`, `ModalState`, `Keymap`, `CommandRegistry`,
//! `Layout`. Exposes `tick(input)` which advances one frame's worth of
//! state given one input event. Pure — no rendering, no I/O beyond file
//! save/load through `BufferSet`.
