Pratik Bhadane 602d675749 feat: add full derivatives analytics layer (options + futures)
Implements all phases of the derivatives expansion plan:

Rust core (crates/ferro_ta_core/src/options/, src/futures/):
- BSM and Black-76 pricing (scalar + vectorized batch)
- Greeks: delta, gamma, vega, theta, rho
- Implied volatility solver (Newton + bisection fallback)
- Smile/skew metrics: ATM IV, 25-delta RR/BF, skew slope, convexity
- Chain helpers: moneyness labels, strike selection by offset or delta
- Synthetic forwards, basis, annualized basis, implied carry, carry spread
- Continuous contract stitching: weighted, back-adjusted, ratio-adjusted
- Curve analytics: calendar spreads, slope, contango/backwardation summary

PyO3 bindings (src/options/, src/futures/):
- All Rust functions registered and exposed via _ferro_ta extension

Python API (python/ferro_ta/analysis/):
- options.py: pricing, greeks, IV, smile, chain, legacy iv_rank/percentile/zscore
- futures.py: basis, carry, curve, roll, synthetic, continuous contracts
- options_strategy.py: typed strategy schemas (expiry/strike selectors, leg presets, risk controls, simulation limits)
- derivatives_payoff.py: multi-leg payoff aggregation and Greeks aggregation

Bug fix: wrap _to_f64 calls in iv_rank/iv_percentile/iv_zscore to raise
FerroTAInputError (not plain ValueError) for 2D array input.

Docs: derivatives.rst, derivatives-analytics.md, options-volatility.md,
quickstart.rst, index.rst, api/analysis.rst all updated.

Tests: 2053 pass, 12 skipped. All CI checks pass locally.

Overview
--------
**ferro-ta** is a fast Technical Analysis library — a drop-in alternative to TA-Lib
powered by Rust and PyO3.
Features:
- 160+ indicators covering all TA-Lib categories
- 10 extended indicators not in TA-Lib (VWAP, Supertrend, Ichimoku Cloud, …)
- Batch execution API — run indicators on 2-D arrays of multiple series
- Pure Rust core library (``crates/ferro_ta_core``) — no PyO3 / numpy dependency
- Streaming / bar-by-bar API for live trading
- Transparent pandas.Series support
- Math operators and transforms
- Type stubs (.pyi) for IDE auto-completion
- WASM binding for browser/Node.js use
- Options/IV helpers and derivatives analytics — see :doc:`derivatives`
- Agentic workflow and LangChain tool wrappers — see `Agentic guide <https://github.com/pratikbhadane24/ferro-ta/blob/main/docs/agentic.md>`_
- MCP server for Cursor/Claude integration — see `MCP guide <https://github.com/pratikbhadane24/ferro-ta/blob/main/docs/mcp.md>`_
- Sphinx documentation
Installation
~~~~~~~~~~~~
.. code-block:: bash
pip install ferro-ta
Quick Start
~~~~~~~~~~~
.. code-block:: python
import numpy as np
from ferro_ta import SMA, EMA, RSI, MACD, BBANDS
close = np.array([10.0, 11.0, 12.0, 13.0, 14.0, 13.5, 12.5])
print(SMA(close, timeperiod=3))
# Batch: run SMA on 5 symbols at once
from ferro_ta.batch import batch_sma
data = np.random.rand(100, 5)
result = batch_sma(data, timeperiod=10)
