feat: add benchmark pipeline, expose APIs, and enforce strict paths

Introduces a Make-based orchestration for simulating, indexing, merging, filtering, and verifying k-mer counts and presence. Exposes internal builder and iterator APIs publicly, enforces mandatory leading slashes for predicate patterns, registers the `obitaxonomy` crate, and updates tooling configurations alongside documentation.
