Features

• bench: N-point scaling arms for the residency matrix — three points for the price of two (#205) (cc611de)
• bench: N-point scaling arms, one shared cold encode — three points for the price of two (cc611de), closes #175
• core: rebuild the dataset pipeline — O(batch) residency, bucket fitting, grid mode, parallel decode (#197) (ea5733e)

Bug Fixes

• bench: --dry-run must not stop the service it is only asking about (#208) (836ca4c), closes #175

Performance Improvements

• bench: parallelize the residency matrix's encode phase (~8.7x) (#216) (d169fb4)
