sched.rs

//! The scheduler kernel: pure state machine, no I/O, no clock, no allocation
//! in the steady state.
//!
//! The caller drives it: feed observations (`on_bytes`, `on_complete`), call
//! `tick(now)`, and act on the returned `Action`s. This is what lets the same
//! code run under the discrete-event simulator and under real HTTP.
//!
//! Implements dynamic range partitioning, divergence-triggered steal-to-equalize,
//! work-conserving assignment, queue dispatch, stall reclamation, and greedy concurrency.
