kingchenc 995f119010 feat(patterns): add the Chart Patterns family (8 swing-based detectors) (#166)
## Summary

Adds a new **Chart Patterns** indicator family (counter 351 → 359, families 21 → 22), the first half of the A4 roadmap item (the harmonic patterns follow in a second PR).

All eight detectors are built on a shared, non-repainting swing-pivot tracker — the internal, **uncounted** `indicators::pattern_swing` module (declared `pub(crate) mod`, re-exported nowhere). Each consumes candles and emits the uniform pattern sign convention already used by the candlestick family — `+1.0` bullish / `-1.0` bearish / `0.0` otherwise, never `None`. They are parameter-free, baking the swing threshold (5%) and level tolerance (3%) in as documented constants, mirroring how candlestick patterns bake in their geometric thresholds.

## Detectors

| Indicator | Signal |
|-----------|--------|
| `DoubleTopBottom` | twin-peak / twin-trough reversal |
| `TripleTopBottom` | three matching extremes (stronger reversal) |
| `HeadAndShoulders` | central head + matching shoulders + flat neckline (and inverse) |
| `Triangle` | ascending (+1) / descending (-1) / symmetrical |
| `Wedge` | rising wedge (-1) / falling wedge (+1) |
| `FlagPennant` | shallow consolidation against a pole → continuation |
| `RectangleRange` | flat support/resistance mean-reversion |
| `CupAndHandle` | rounded base + shallow handle (and inverse) |

## Touchpoints

Core modules + `FAMILIES` group and assert, crate root re-exports, Python/Node/WASM bindings via the candle-pattern macros (Node `index.d.ts`/`index.js` regenerated), the candle fuzz target, Python reference + `CANDLE_SCALAR` registry tests and the Node candle-scalar factory, README catalogue counter + banner cache-buster + family table row + family-count word, `docs/README.md` counter, and the changelog.

## Verification

- `cargo test -p wickra-core --lib` — 2915 passed
- `cargo test -p wickra-core --doc` — 335 passed
- `cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets --all-features -- -D warnings` — clean
- Node `npm run build && npm test` — 436 passed
- Python `maturin develop --release` + `pytest` — 732 passed

Every detector branch is unit-tested; multi-condition predicates were flattened to single-line precomputed booleans to keep patch coverage at 100%.

Fuzzing Wickra

cargo-fuzz harnesses for the parsing and stateful entry points of Wickra. Fuzzing requires a nightly Rust toolchain.

Setup

cargo install cargo-fuzz
rustup toolchain install nightly

Targets

Target What it exercises
csv_reader CandleReader over arbitrary bytes — headers, cells, BOM, binary noise.
binance_envelope RawWsEnvelope deserialization from arbitrary strings.
indicator_update Every scalar-input indicator (SMA / EMA / WMA / RSI / DEMA / TEMA / HMA / ROC / TRIX / SMMA / TRIMA / ZLEMA / KAMA / T3 / MOM / CMO / TSI / PMO / StochRSI / DPO / PPO / Coppock / StdDev / UlcerIndex / HistoricalVolatility / LinearRegression / LinRegSlope / LinRegAngle / VHF / ZScore / MACD / Bollinger) streamed + batched over arbitrary f64 sequences (NaN, ±inf, jumps).
indicator_update_candle Every candle-input indicator (ATR, NATR, TrueRange, ChaikinVolatility, Keltner, Donchian, PSAR, SuperTrend, ChandelierExit, ChandeKrollStop, ATRTrailingStop, ADX, Aroon, AroonOscillator, Vortex, MassIndex, ChoppinessIndex, CCI, WilliamsR, AwesomeOscillator, AcceleratorOscillator, UltimateOscillator, BalanceOfPower, OBV, MFI, VWAP, RollingVWAP, VWMA, ADL, VPT, CMF, ChaikinOscillator, ForceIndex, EaseOfMovement, TypicalPrice, MedianPrice, WeightedClose, Stochastic) streamed + batched over fuzz-derived OHLCV candles.
tick_aggregator TickAggregator over arbitrary (price, volume, timestamp) triples.

Run

# From the repository root:
cargo +nightly fuzz run csv_reader
cargo +nightly fuzz run binance_envelope
cargo +nightly fuzz run indicator_update
cargo +nightly fuzz run indicator_update_candle
cargo +nightly fuzz run tick_aggregator

Each run continues until a crash is found or it is interrupted. A short time-boxed smoke run is useful in CI:

cargo +nightly fuzz run csv_reader -- -max_total_time=60

The expectation for every target is that it never panics: malformed or adversarial input must surface as an Err, never a crash.
