Introduces a complete query benchmark track to evaluate performance and verify consistency between dense and sparse index formats. Adds scripts to simulate fixed-size paired-end reads, pack a sparse presence index, execute queries in both modes, and capture wall time and RSS metrics. Includes a verification step that compares outputs by read ID to ensure content identity across parallel processing. Updates build configuration, documentation, and ignore patterns to support the new pipeline for two microbial specimens.
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.
