columnar.rs

//! Plain columnar encode/decode for the prototype type set.
//!
//! Each column is stored as a single page of the form:
//!   `[u32 validity_len][validity bytes][payload bytes]`
//! where `validity` is a bitmap (bit `i` set ⇒ row `i` non-null) and `payload`
//! is type-specific:
//! - `Int64`/`Float64`/`TimestampNanos`: N × 8 BE bytes (null rows: zeros).
//! - `Bool`/`Date32`/small ints: N × element bytes.
//! - `Bytes`: `(N+1) × 8` BE offsets then the concatenated bytes.
//! - `Embedding{dim}`: N × dim × 4 BE bytes (f32 bit patterns).
//!
//! Phase 5 will swap Plain for dictionary/delta/byte-stream-split encodings
//! chosen from run-time stats; the page framing stays identical.
