//! `polydat-derive` — proc-macro implementation of
//! [`#[polydat_node]`](polydat_node).
//!
//! The attribute turns a typed free function into a polydat node.
//! From one `fn` it emits the node struct (named after the function
//! in PascalCase), its `new()` constructor, the `PolydatNode` impl
//! (`meta`, `eval`, and the compiled forms the signature allows),
//! and a link-time `NodeRegistration` carrying the `FuncSig` the
//! DSL registry serves. The function's `///` comment becomes the
//! struct's documentation and the signature's `description` (first
//! paragraph) and `help` (the rest).
//!
//! ## Arguments
//!
//! Each argument is classified by its type and attributes:
//!
//! - **Wire** — a per-cycle input. Scalars (`u64`, `i64`, `f64`,
//!   `bool`, the narrower ints, `f32`, `f16`, `u128`, `i128`),
//!   strings (`&str`, `String`, `Arc<str>`), bytes (`&[u8]`,
//!   `Vec<u8>`, `Arc<[u8]>`), JSON (`&serde_json::Value`,
//!   `Arc<serde_json::Value>`), typed vectors (`&[f32]`, `Vec<i64>`,
//!   ...), SIMD registers (`Bits128`, `[i32; 4]`, ...), `Arc<T>`
//!   handles, and host `Ext` types. `Option<T>` marks an input that
//!   may be unset; `Config<T>` marks a configuration-cost wire.
//!   `#[constraint(Variant)]` attaches a `ConstConstraint` to a
//!   wire input.
//! - **PolyWire** — a `Value` argument: any runtime type; the output
//!   type of a `Value` return tracks the first PolyWire input.
//! - **Variadic** — a `&[T]` argument for `T` in `u64`, `bool`,
//!   `&str`, `String`, `Value`; two consecutive slices form a
//!   split-halves shape. `variadic_min` and `identity` describe the
//!   arity.
//! - **Const** — `Const<u64 | f64 | bool | &str>`, a workload
//!   constant captured at construction; `#[poly_default(EXPR)]`
//!   supplies its default. `Const<Vec<C>>` (last) captures every
//!   trailing constant of the call.
//! - **Setup** — a `&T` argument with
//!   `#[poly_const(setup_fn, from = source)]`: derived state
//!   computed once in `new()` from the named const arguments
//!   (`from = ()` for none, `from = (a, b)` for several). `T`
//!   implements `PolydatSetup`.
//!
//! ## Returns
//!
//! A single wire type; a tuple of wire types (multi-output, named
//! by `output_names(...)`); `Value` (polymorphic); `Result<T, E>`
//! for a body that runs once at construction and caches its value;
//! or a dynamic-output list over a `Const<Vec<C>>` argument.
//!
//! ## Attribute parameters
//!
//! - `category = <FuncCategory>` — required.
//! - `struct_name = <Ident>` — the Rust name of the node struct.
//! - `compiled_u64 = <path>` — `fn(&Node) -> CompiledU64Op`,
//!   replacing the macro's u64-buffer closure.
//! - `compiled_slot = <path>` — `fn(&Node, &[PortType]) ->
//!   CompiledSlotKit`, replacing the slot kit's closure.
//! - `state = <path>` — per-state scratch: `scratch_layout` and
//!   `eval_in` delegate to `<path>::layout` / `<path>::eval`.
//! - `jit_constants = <path>` — `fn(&Node) -> Vec<u64>`.
//! - `decompose = <path>` — `fn(&Node) -> DecomposedGraph`, emitting
//!   `impl FusedNode`.
//! - `simd = "<node>"`, `simd_total` — an exact register-typed
//!   implementation of the scalar function.
//! - `purity = <Purity>`, `identity = <expr>`,
//!   `commutativity = <Commutativity>`, `variadic_min = <int>`.
//! - `output_names(a, b, ...)` — the ports of a tuple return.

/// `#[polydat_node]` — derive a polydat node from a typed Rust
/// function signature.
///
/// See the crate docs for the argument and return shapes the

///
/// ## Attribute parameters
///
/// - `category = <ident>` — the polydat `FuncCategory` variant
///   the node belongs to (`Comparison`, `Math`, `String`, etc.).
///   Required; there is no default.
/// - `struct_name = <Ident>` — the Rust name of the generated node
///   struct. Defaults to the function name in PascalCase, so a node
///   `fn geo_cell` produces `struct GeoCell`; set this when that name
///   is already taken, typically by the value type the node returns.
///   The DSL name is always the function name.
/// - `simd = "<node-name>"` declares an exact, lane-independent
///   register-typed implementation of the scalar function.
/// - `simd_total` certifies that the declared SIMD implementation is defined
///   for the complete scalar input domain. It requires `simd`.
