//! Programmatic assembly API for building Polydat Kernels.
//!
//! The assembler validates wiring and types, auto-inserts edge adapters,
//! topologically sorts nodes, and builds a kernel on any engine: a host
//! adds nodes and wires (or takes the assembler the DSL built from
//! source) and calls [`PolydatAssembler::compile_kernel`] for the default
//! engine, [`PolydatAssembler::compile_with`] for a named one, or
//! [`PolydatAssembler::compile`] for the interpreter kernel as a concrete
//! type. The `try_compile*` constructors build one engine's kernel as its
//! concrete type for the differential suites and the ladder.
