/// Single-producer / single-consumer streaming series.
///
/// The producer thread only ever calls push()/push(ys, n) (and produced()): those
/// touch the ring buffer and nothing else -- no lock, no pyramid, no GL, so the
/// acquisition thread can never stall the renderer. The consumer thread calls
/// acquire() to publish a coherent snapshot, then queries it.
///
/// Indexing is the *retained window published by the last acquire()*: size(),
/// reduce(), sum(), sumsq(), gather() and pyramid() all use it, and index 0 is
/// the oldest sample still held.
///
/// The pyramid behind those queries is indexed in absolute sample space, so a
/// window that slides only makes it drop the leading buckets the ring has
/// overwritten and append the samples produced since the last acquire(): acquire()
/// costs O(samples produced), not O(capacity()), and the aggregates that stay in
/// the window are never recomputed. The one exception is a producer that laps the
/// consumer -- more than capacity() samples between two acquires -- where the
/// samples in between were never appended and the pyramid restarts at the new
/// base, so that acquire re-reads the whole window.
///
/// x0() is therefore the x of the oldest retained sample, x_bounds().min == x0(),
/// and y_bounds() covers exactly the published samples. `streaming()` says true:
/// this is the window that slides, the one `XFollow::Live` follows.
///
/// THREADING NOTE. The ring overwrites the oldest samples -- that is what keeps a
/// live stream showing the newest data, and what the drop test pins down -- so a
/// producer can overwrite the slots a consumer is reading even while it holds a
/// snapshot. Those slots are relaxed atomics (see RingBuffer), so this is not a
/// data race and no value tears; what it is not is a frozen window.
///
/// The bound is the sample count, not the geometry. A snapshot count fixes *which
/// absolute indices* a read walks, not that the slots still hold those samples:
/// every push after the snapshot overwrites exactly one slot, the one belonging to
/// the sample capacity() positions behind it. So if the producer pushes k samples
/// while a read is in flight, the first k positions of that read window can hold
/// one of those k newer samples (or a still-newer sample, once the producer has
/// lapped again) instead of the sample the snapshot names. Nothing else moves: the
/// count, the absolute index -> x mapping and the newest end of the window are
/// derived from one published count, and the next acquire() slides the pyramid's
/// window to the base it observes (dropping the leading buckets, appending what is
/// new), so the pyramid never mixes two windows. Ingest with no reuse
/// underneath a read at all needs the producer to stop before unread data
/// (drop-on-full) or a claim protocol, i.e. a different contract from the one this
/// class specifies.
