//! Column-aware pager. Pages [`Column`] instances out via [`mz_ore::pager`],
//! optionally compressing with lz4.
//!
//! The pager (`mz_ore::pager`) deals in `Vec<u64>` blobs and two backends. This
//! module adds:
//!
//! 1. A [`PagingPolicy`] trait that decides _whether_ to page out, _which
//!    backend_, and _whether to compress_. Decisions live in the policy
//!    implementation, not in the global atomic the pager exposes.
//! 2. A [`ColumnPager`] that drains a `Column<C>` into a [`PagedColumn`] and
//!    rehydrates it on demand.
//! 3. Lz4 frame-format compression as an optional codec.
//!
//! The serialization uses the existing [`ContainerBytes`] protocol on
//! `Column<C>`, so we get a single byte layout that both raw and compressed
//! paths share. See `doc/developer/design/20260504_pager.md` for background.
