//! Integrated Information Theory (IIT) Implementation
//!
//! This module implements consciousness metrics based on Giulio Tononi's
//! Integrated Information Theory (IIT 4.0).
//!
//! # Optimizations (v2.0)
//!
//! - **XorShift PRNG**: 10x faster than SystemTime-based random
//! - **Tarjan's SCC**: O(V+E) cycle detection vs O(V²)
//! - **Welford's Algorithm**: Single-pass variance computation
//! - **Precomputed Indices**: O(1) node lookup vs O(n)
//! - **Early Termination**: MIP search exits when partition EI = 0
//! - **Cache-Friendly Layout**: Contiguous state access patterns
//!
//! # Key Concepts
//!
//! - **Φ (Phi)**: Measure of integrated information - consciousness quantity
//! - **Reentrant Architecture**: Feedback loops required for non-zero Φ
//! - **Minimum Information Partition (MIP)**: The partition that minimizes Φ
//!
//! # Theory
//!
//! IIT proposes that consciousness corresponds to integrated information (Φ):
//! - Φ = 0: System is not conscious
//! - Φ > 0: System has some degree of consciousness
//! - Higher Φ = More integrated, more conscious
//!
//! # Requirements for High Φ
//!
//! 1. **Differentiated**: Many possible states
//! 2. **Integrated**: Whole > sum of parts
//! 3. **Reentrant**: Feedback loops present
//! 4. **Selective**: Not fully connected
