feat(sp20): parallelise imbalance-bar OHLCV reduction via two-pass decomposition

Bottleneck B of two: replaces the sequential `ImbalanceBarSampler` walk
in `mbp10_to_imbalance_bars` with a two-pass parallel decomposition.
Bit-identical to sequential — verified by 6/6 passing tests in
`crates/ml-features/tests/imbalance_bars_parallel_bit_equiv_test.rs` at
both dense (T=20, ~23k bars) and sparse (T=500, ~300 bars) emission
regimes, exact 0.0 diff on every f64 field.

Why two-pass (NOT time-bucket sharding)
=======================================
Time-bucket sharding (the SP20 OFI pattern in
`compute_ofi_per_bar_parallel`) bit-equates to sequential because OFI
features derive from BOUNDED rolling windows (VPIN ≤50, Kyle ≤100,
trade-imb ≤100, OFI-stats ≤300). After ≥window-size warmup updates,
two rolling buffers started from different initial states converge
bit-identically.

`ImbalanceBarSampler` is fundamentally different: its `cumulative_imbalance`
is a path integral that resets only when crossing ±threshold. There is
NO bounded-lookback window. Two replays of the same trade tape starting
from different cum_imb offsets emit at DIFFERENT trade indices, and the
phase offset is NOT guaranteed to vanish at any future trade — even
after many emissions, a bounded phase difference can persist
indefinitely. An earlier time-bucket-sharded prototype with WARMUP=10000
trades passed K=4/K=8 at threshold=20 (dense emissions, ~30 emissions
per shard's warmup window) but FAILED at threshold=500 with a 1-bar
count drift (golden=303, parallel=304) — exactly the kind of phase-
offset divergence predicted by the path-integral analysis.

Two-pass decomposition
======================
Pass 1 (sequential, lightweight): walk the trade tape ONCE tracking only
cum_imb, prev_price, last_direction. Record the trade index of every
emission-triggering trade as the end of a segment. No OHLCV state, no
Vec<OHLCVBar> allocation, no per-trade conditional bar construction.
O(N) simple arithmetic — for 50k-2M trades it runs in 1-15ms.

Pass 2 (parallel rayon): each emission segment [boundary[i-1]+1,
boundary[i]] produces exactly one bar via independent OHLCV reduction
over its trade slice. Segments are fully independent; `par_iter()` over
segment ranges is trivially correct.

Bit-equivalence guarantee
=========================
Pass 1 mirrors `ImbalanceBarSampler::update` arithmetic verbatim:
- zero-volume early-return (alternative_bars.rs:484-486)
- direction tie-break (alternative_bars.rs:495-506)
- cum_imb update (alternative_bars.rs:508-510)
- emission threshold check (alternative_bars.rs:522-523)
- prev_price/last_direction kept across emissions (reset() at :558-566)
- NO trailing-partial-bar flush (matches sequential exactly)

Pass 2's per-segment OHLCV reduction matches the sampler's per-bar OHLCV
update verbatim: open = first non-zero-volume trade in segment, close =
last non-zero-volume trade, high/low = max/min over non-zero-volume
trades, volume = sum, timestamp = open's timestamp.

Performance (release-mode bench, 16-thread rayon pool)
======================================================
n=100k:   seq=1.39ms,  par=1.88ms,  speedup=0.74x  (rayon overhead dominates)
n=500k:   seq=8.04ms,  par=3.35ms,  speedup=2.40x
n=2M:     seq=27.59ms, par=12.39ms, speedup=2.23x

Speedup is bounded by Pass 1 (sequential, ~5-7ms at 2M trades) since
Pass 2 (parallel, ~2-3ms at 2M trades on 16 threads) is ~3x faster
than Pass 1's sequential floor. At production scale (50k-500k trades
per `mbp10_to_imbalance_bars` call) we get 2-2.4x speedup over the
all-sequential baseline.

The `min_bars_per_task` cutoff falls back to a sequential Pass 2 when
segment count < 256 (the rayon spawn overhead exceeds the parallel
benefit). Tunable via the second function arg.

Files changed
=============
- crates/ml-features/src/alternative_bars.rs (+1 -1):
    derive `Clone` on `ImbalanceBarSampler` for parallel-shard use
    (carried through this commit even though Pass 1's hand-rolled walk
    in `mbp10_loader.rs` doesn't need it — keeps the type clonable for
    future test/bench infrastructure).
- crates/ml-features/src/lib.rs (+3 -2):
    re-export `imbalance_bars_parallel`, `imbalance_bars_sequential`,
    `DEFAULT_IMBALANCE_BAR_MIN_BARS_PER_TASK`.
- crates/ml-features/src/mbp10_loader.rs (+253 -15):
    new `imbalance_bars_parallel`, `imbalance_bars_sequential`,
    `DEFAULT_IMBALANCE_BAR_MIN_BARS_PER_TASK` const. Replace the inline
    sampler-walk loop in `mbp10_to_imbalance_bars` with a call into
    `imbalance_bars_parallel`. Module note explains why time-bucket
    sharding doesn't apply.
- crates/ml-features/tests/imbalance_bars_parallel_bit_equiv_test.rs
    (+272 NEW): hermetic synthetic-trade bit-equivalence tests at:
        * default cutoff (par_iter Pass 2)
        * forced par_iter (min_bars_per_task=1)
        * forced sequential Pass 2 (min_bars_per_task=usize::MAX)
        * empty input
        * small input (Pass 2 below par cutoff)
        * high-threshold sparse emissions (the case that broke the
          time-bucket sharding prototype). All pass exact 0.0 diff.

Also note: 293/293 ml-features lib tests pass (no regression).

Pairs with the file-level par_iter trade extraction in
8f5c64e10 (Bottleneck A). Together they parallelise both halves of
`mbp10_to_imbalance_bars`.

//! Bit-equivalence test for `imbalance_bars_parallel` vs.
//! `imbalance_bars_sequential` (SP20 Bottleneck B, 2026-05-10).
//!
//! Asserts that the two-pass parallel implementation produces the SAME

//! the `last_direction` branch).
//! 2. Run `imbalance_bars_sequential` to capture the golden bars.
//! 3. Run `imbalance_bars_parallel` (always Pass 1 sequential to find
//! emission boundaries; Pass 2 parallel rayon over segments). Vary
//! `min_bars_per_task` to exercise both the sequential-fallback and
//! par_iter cutoff paths.
//! 4. Assert bar lists are identical: same length, every field bitwise
//! equal (timestamp, OHLCV all f64-bitwise + DateTime equal).
//!
//! Why synthetic data: the test must be hermetic — no dependence on
//! `test_data/futures-baseline-mbp10`. The walk produces dense (low-T)
//! and sparse (high-T) emission regimes both, exercising the cutoff path.
//!
//! Why two-pass (NOT time-bucket sharding): `ImbalanceBarSampler.cum_imb`
//! is path-dependent with no bounded-lookback window. Time-bucket sharding
//! with warmup overlap (the OFI pattern) does NOT yield bit-identical
//! emission indices — a phase offset persists indefinitely between shard-
//! local and sequential walks. The two-pass decomposition runs Pass 1
//! sequentially to capture the EXACT emission boundary set, then
//! parallelises only the per-segment OHLCV reduction (which is trivially
//! independent across segments).
//!
//! If this test fails: the two-pass implementation has diverged from
//! sequential semantics. Audit Pass 1's `update()` mirroring (direction
