…ction, static batch guard
New pooling modes
- `Pooling::LastToken`: takes the last non-padding token's embedding,
required by Qwen3-Embedding-family decoder models
- `Pooling::PrePooledU8 { scale, zero_point }`: affine dequantization
`f32 = (u8 - zero_point) × scale` for calibrated uint8 ONNX outputs
(e.g. `electroglyph/Qwen3-Embedding-0.6B-onnx-uint8`)
- `dequant_u8()` helper; `select_output_u8()` on `SingleBatchOutput`
Output precedence
- `sentence_embedding` is now preferred over `last_hidden_state` when
both outputs are present; models that only expose `last_hidden_state`
fall through unchanged
Auto-injection in transform()
- `position_ids [[0,1,…,seq-1],…]`: injected when session has a
`position_ids` input (dynamo-exported decoder models)
- `task_id = 1`: injected when session has a `task_id` input
(Jina-embeddings-v3 LoRA adapter selection)
- `past_key_values.N.key/value [batch, kv_heads, 0, head_dim]`:
injected for each layer when KV-cache inputs are detected
(onnx-community-style exports)
Static batch guard
- `new()` reads the `input_ids` shape; a positive batch dimension means
the model was exported with a fixed batch size — `transform()` now
returns a descriptive error instead of an opaque ORT shape mismatch

…_lazy_continuation The `mean` function's doc comment was accidentally placed above `dequant_u8`, causing clippy to see `/// *` list items followed immediately by `/// Dequantize...` and flag it as a list continuation without indentation. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
`FASTEMBED_CACHE_DIR` now accepts a colon-separated list of paths:
FASTEMBED_CACHE_DIR=/fast/ssd/models:/slow/backup/models
All three model retrieval paths (text embedding, sparse embedding,
reranking) search the list in order and use the first directory that
contains a complete hf-hub snapshot for the requested model. If no
directory has the model, it is downloaded into the first directory.
New public helpers:
- `get_cache_dirs() -> Vec<PathBuf>` — parses the env var
- `find_model_cache_dir(model_code, dirs)` — locates an existing snapshot
`get_cache_dir()` is preserved unchanged for backwards compatibility.

This'll break on Windows.
Maybe std::env::split_paths?

Duplicates the logic of select_output.
Please consider refactoring duplicated bit into a private helper and use in both places.

Summary
This PR adds engine-level support for decoder-style ONNX embedding models (e.g.
onnx-community/Qwen3-Embedding-0.6B), which require different inference wiring than encoder models.New
