Module channel 

Lock-free streaming channels with automatic SPSC → MPSC upgrade.

This module provides channels optimized for streaming data flow with:

• SPSC mode for single-producer scenarios (fastest)
• Automatic upgrade to MPSC when Producer::clone() is called
• Configurable backpressure strategies
• Zero-allocation batch operations

Key Design

The channel type is NEVER user-specified. It starts as SPSC and automatically upgrades to MPSC when the producer is cloned.

let (producer, consumer) = streaming::channel::<u64>(1024);
assert!(!producer.is_mpsc());

let producer2 = producer.clone();  // Triggers MPSC upgrade
assert!(producer.is_mpsc());
