The `obikmer select` CLI no longer supports in-place index rewriting; the `--output` flag is now required, with benchmarks updated to use temporary directories for atomic replacement. Added `--dense` and `--force-copy` flags. Introduced `batch_presence_counts` to compute presence counts across multiple column groups in a single pass, eliminating redundant I/O. Refactored the aggregation pipeline to branch on layer content, applying the optimized batched counting for `Presence` layers. Enhanced the NUMA runner to catch worker panics, track them, and re-raise after thread join to prevent indefinite blocking.
