"""Reed-Solomon erasure coding for KIPU receipt-cell durability.

HONEST NAMING: this is Reed-Solomon (Reed & Solomon, 1960) — the same MDS erasure code
used by RAID-6, CD/DVD/Blu-ray, QR codes, and Backblaze's storage pods. It is NOT
"holographic quantum error correction". An (n, k) RS code splits data into k data shards
plus (n-k) parity shards; ANY k of the n shards reconstruct the original. We default to
RS(10, 6): 6 data + 4 parity, surviving loss of any 4 of 10 shards (40% loss tolerance).

Implementation strategy (open-source only, graceful):
  * If the `reedsolo` package is installed, use it (battle-tested GF(2^8) RS).
  * Otherwise use a self-contained pure-Python RS over GF(2^8) implemented here so the
    package works with zero non-stdlib deps. Same (n, k) semantics either way.
