pub fn fetch_image_bytes(reference: &str) -> Result<Vec<u8>, RedDBError>Expand description
Fetch the bytes of an image referenced by a row field.
The reference is a URL/URI (ADR 0057 stores the reference, never the bytes). Supported schemes:
file://<path>and bare filesystem paths — read from disk;http:///https://— fetched viaureq(rustls).
Network/IO failures surface as RedDBError so the enrichment lane’s
retry-with-backoff and dead-letter machinery handles them like any
other provider failure.
