Stack 4 of 10 for Lance generic block sequence compression.
This composes constant, bitpacking, RLE, range, delta, and dictionary codecs into a bounded u32/u64 cascade. Each concrete codec still owns its descriptor and payload contract; the cascade only evaluates complete serialized cost and chooses a strictly smaller valid candidate.
The layer completes the reusable codec set without adopting it in the variable-width writer. Stable Lance 2.0–2.2 bytes, selection, and reader behavior remain unchanged.
