Struct MultiStartConfig 

pub struct MultiStartConfig {
    pub n_starts: usize,
    pub seed: u64,
    pub strategy: StartStrategy,
}

Multi-start local search user-facing config.

Solves n_starts independent IPM problems from different starting points and returns the best objective. Improves escape rate on non-convex QPs and supplies incumbents for spatial B&B.

User-controlled (pub fields):

• n_starts: parallelism / hit probability
• seed: reproducibility (0 is internally clamped to 1 to avoid LCG lock)
• strategy: sampling strategy

n_starts == 1: single cold solve (existing behaviour). n_starts >= 2: start #0 = cold, #1..n = random (warm_start_qp.x injected). All starts share the same deadline.

Fields

n_starts: usize

Number of starting points. 1 disables multi-start. Default = 1.

seed: u64

Random seed. Default = DEFAULT_MULTISTART_SEED.

strategy: StartStrategy

Sampling strategy. Default = RandomBox.
