//! Streaming record framing: the seam that cuts a decoded byte stream into
//! records.
//!
//! Framing is a **transport- and format-agnostic seam**. Any streaming or pull
//! source (object-storage backfills in `spate-s3`, HTTP chunked bodies,
//! WebSocket message streams, file tails) must turn a byte stream into records
//! before a [`Deserializer`](crate::deser::Deserializer) decodes each one.
//! That "one payload → one record" split lets a single decoder serve every
//! source; the framer decides what one payload *is*.
//!
//! `spate-core` owns the seam here (the [`RecordFramer`] trait, the
//! [`FramerWriter`] decompressor shim, and the [`FramingContract`] handshake).
//! The concrete framers are owned by the **format** crates, because how a byte
//! stream splits into records is a property of the format rather than the
//! transport. `spate-json` provides newline-delimited framing for NDJSON, a
//! future `spate-avro` an object-container block framer, and so on. A source
//! stays format-agnostic and receives its framer at pipeline-assembly time
//! (e.g. `S3Source::with_framer`), so the same framer serves every streaming
//! source and no source hard-codes a format.
//!
//! A [`RecordFramer`] is fed decoded bytes in arbitrary chunks and yields
//! completed record byte-slices. It **must be a pure function of the byte
//! stream**, independent of how the bytes are chunked, so a source that
//! resumes by record index replays deterministically; at-least-once resume
//! depends on it (see the `spate-s3` offset model). Compression is *not* part
//! of framing. A source that decompresses wraps its decompressor around a
//! [`FramerWriter`], so the framer only ever sees already-decoded bytes.
//!
//! Dispatch through `Box<dyn RecordFramer>` happens once per fed chunk, never
//! per record, so each impl's per-record scan stays monomorphized.

///   framer). The deserializer must decode a *single* unit; a deserializer
///   configured to *also* frame the payload is a double-framing error.
/// - [`WholePayload`](FramingContract::WholePayload): the source emits whole
