jgrusewski 9c3d741a08 refactor: restructure repo — crates/, bin/, testing/ layout
Move 17 library crates into crates/, CLI binary into bin/fxt,
consolidate 10 test crates into testing/, split config crate
from deployment config files.

Root directory reduced from 38+ to ~17 directories.
All Cargo.toml paths and build.rs proto refs updated.

# Trading Engine Crate
## Overview
The `trading_engine` crate provides the high-performance core infrastructure essential for High-Frequency Trading (HFT) operations. It focuses on ultra-low latency execution, precise timing, and efficient order management to handle demanding market conditions.
## Features
* **Extreme Performance Optimization**: Utilizes RDTSC for precise timing, CPU affinity for dedicated core execution, and SIMD instructions for vectorized data processing.
* **Robust Order Management**: Manages the lifecycle of orders, from placement to execution and cancellation, ensuring accuracy and low-latency updates.
* **Flexible Execution Engine**: Implements a highly optimized engine capable of processing trading strategies and executing orders across various venues.
* **Multi-Broker Connectivity**: Seamlessly integrates with multiple brokers, including Interactive Brokers and ICMarkets, via specialized adapters.
* **Event-Sourced Architecture**: Employs event sourcing for deterministic state reconstruction, coupled with comprehensive metrics and persistent storage.
* **Concurrent Lock-Free Data Structures**: Leverages advanced lock-free data structures to minimize contention and maximize throughput in multi-threaded environments.
## Architecture
The `trading_engine` is structured around several key components:
* **Execution Core**: The central logic for strategy evaluation and trade decision-making.
* **Order Manager**: Handles all order-related operations, maintaining order state and communicating with broker adapters.
* **Broker Adapters**: Abstract interfaces and concrete implementations for connecting to specific trading venues (e.g., `IbAdapter`, `IcMarketsAdapter`).
* **Performance Utilities**: Modules for RDTSC access, CPU core pinning, and SIMD instruction sets.
* **Event Store**: A mechanism for recording all significant events, enabling replay and auditability.
* **Metrics System**: Collects and reports performance and operational statistics.
* **Persistence Layer**: Stores critical state and event data for recovery and analysis.
* **Concurrency Primitives**: Custom lock-free queues, rings, and other data structures.
## Usage
To initialize the trading engine and place a simple order:
```rust
use trading_engine::{
engine::TradingEngine,
order::{Order, OrderSide, OrderType},
broker::BrokerType,
};
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
let mut engine = TradingEngine::new();
engine.connect_broker(BrokerType::InteractiveBrokers).await?;
let order = Order {
symbol: "ESZ23".to_string(),
side: OrderSide::Buy,
order_type: OrderType::Limit,
quantity: 1,
price: Some(4500.0),
// ... other order details
};
let order_id = engine.place_order(order).await?;
println!("Placed order with ID: {}", order_id);
Ok(())
}
```
## Testing
To run the tests for the `trading_engine` crate:
```bash
cargo test --package trading_engine
```
