19/// Incremental JSON parser that can handle partial/incomplete JSON.
20///
21/// Builds up a string token by token and attempts to parse at each step,
22/// returning the best partial result possible. This is designed for streaming
23/// LLM output where JSON arrives in small chunks and may be incomplete until
24/// the stream finishes.
25///
26/// # Strategy
27///
28/// 1. Accumulate tokens into an internal buffer.
29/// 2. On each `push_and_parse`, attempt to parse the buffer as complete JSON.
30/// 3. If that fails, try to repair the partial JSON by closing unclosed
31/// brackets/braces and truncating incomplete string values.
32/// 4. If repair yields valid JSON, return it; otherwise return
33/// `PartialJsonError::Incomplete`.
34///
35/// # Example
36///
37/// ```ignore
38/// let mut parser = PartialJsonParser::new();
39/// // Simulating token-by-token LLM output
40/// let _ = parser.push_and_parse(r#"{"name":"#); // Incomplete
41/// let v = parser.push_and_parse(r#""Alice","age":30}"#); // Ok({"name":"Alice","age":30})
