/**
 * Pure-TypeScript port of vendor/file-index-src (Rust NAPI module).
 *
 * The native module wraps nucleo (https://github.com/helix-editor/nucleo) for
 * high-performance fuzzy file searching. This port reimplements the same API
 * and scoring behavior without native dependencies.
 *
 * Key API:
 *   new FileIndex()
 *   .loadFromFileList(fileList: string[]): void   — dedupe + index paths
 *   .search(query: string, limit: number): SearchResult[]
 *
 * Score semantics: lower = better. Score is position-in-results / result-count,
 * so the best match is 0.0. Paths containing "test" get a 1.05× penalty (capped
 * at 1.0) so non-test files rank slightly higher.
