/**
 * @module utils/resultRanking
 * @description Top-K result ranking for the search pipeline. Brainy's `find()` ranks
 * candidate results by relevance score and then slices to a page (`offset + limit`).
 * For large candidate sets this is an O(N log N) full sort even though only the top
 * `k = offset + limit` rows are kept.
 *
 * This module exposes a swappable `sort:topK` seam:
 * - {@link rankIndicesByScore} returns the indices of `scores` ordered exactly as a
 *   descending stable sort would order them, then truncated to `k`.
 * - {@link setSortTopKImplementation} lets a native plugin (e.g. cortex's Rust
 *   partial-sort / heap-select) replace the JS implementation. The native provider
 *   only has to return the same *index ordering* the JS path produces.
 *
 * The default JS implementation ({@link sortTopKIndicesJs}) is the canonical, always-correct
 * fallback. It is intentionally identical in ordering to `Array.prototype.sort((a, b) => b - a)`:
 * descending by score, with stable ordering for ties (lower original index first). This
 * guarantees that wiring the hook in or out never changes which results a query returns or
 * in what order — only how fast the ranking is computed.
 *
 * @see setSQ8DistanceImplementation in ./vectorQuantization.js for the sibling provider-swap pattern.

/**
 * Signature of a `sort:topK` implementation. Given a parallel array of `scores`, a
 * target count `k`, and a sort direction, it returns the indices into `scores` in the
 * desired order, truncated to at most `k` entries.
 *
 * Contract (the native implementation MUST match the JS default exactly):
 * - `descending: true` → indices ordered by score high→low.
 * - Ties (equal scores) keep their original relative order (stable).
 * - The returned array has `min(k, scores.length)` entries; `k <= 0` returns `[]`.
 *
 * @param scores - Relevance scores, one per candidate result.
 * @param k - Maximum number of indices to return (the page size, `offset + limit`).
 * @param descending - When true, highest score first (the only mode used by ranking).
 * @returns Indices into `scores`, ordered and truncated to `k`.

 * `scores.map((_, i) => i).sort((a, b) => descending ? scores[b] - scores[a] : scores[a] - scores[b])`
 * and then truncates to `k`, but without allocating intermediate result objects.
 *
 * Stability: ties are broken by original index (ascending), matching the ES2019+ stable
 * `Array.prototype.sort`. This is what keeps the hook's output byte-identical to the
 * previous `results.sort((a, b) => b.score - a.score)` followed by `slice`.
