* stats1: add rank accumulator (#383)
Adds `mlr stats1 -a rank` for standard competition ranking (1,2,2,4,...)
on pre-sorted data, most useful with -s for a rank on every record.
* stats1: make rank order-independent by default, add --rank-sorted opt-in fast path
The rank accumulator previously only compared each value to the immediately
preceding record, silently giving wrong ranks for non-adjacent duplicates
(e.g. unsorted input, or interleaved -g groups). Default to correctly
computing standard competition rank from all values seen so far
(order-independent, buffers values, same approach as percentile
accumulators). Add --rank-sorted for callers who can promise sorted input
and want the previous O(1)-space streaming behavior instead.
* Revert "stats1: make rank order-independent by default, add --rank-sorted opt-in fast path"
This reverts commit aa45a591fe.
* Revert "stats1: add rank accumulator (#383)"
This reverts commit 96deed048a.
* Add mlr rank verb (#383)
Reverts the earlier stats1 -a rank / --rank-sorted approach: stats1 is a
reduce verb (many records -> one summary record per group) and rank is a
per-record annotator, so it never fit cleanly there -- it needed stats1's
-s iterative-stats escape hatch just to be useful, plus a bolted-on
sorted/unsorted split.
mlr rank is a dedicated verb modeled on mlr fraction: -f fields to rank,
-g optional group-by, output field <f>_rank. By default it's a two-pass
algorithm (buffers input, like fraction does) giving standard competition
rank (1,2,2,4,...) that's correct regardless of input order. --sorted
opts into a single-pass, O(1)-space streaming alternative for callers who
can promise pre-sorted input (e.g. via 'mlr sort' first).

The join verb's left-file ingest silently swallowed read errors: a
nonexistent or malformed left file produced empty (or partial) output
with exit code 0.
Two defects, one per ingest path:
* Unsorted (half-streaming) path, ingestLeftFile in
pkg/transformers/join.go: errors from the record-reader's error
channel were dropped ("TODO: propagate error to caller"), as were
record-reader construction errors. All left-file read failures were
silent.
* Sorted (-s) path, readRecord in
pkg/transformers/utils/join_bucket_keeper.go: the error channel was
consulted, but the record-reader goroutine sends the error and the
end-of-stream marker on separate channels, so the select could see
end-of-stream first and drop the error. A nonexistent left file with
-s exited 0 about half the time (racy).
Both paths now print "mlr: <error>" to stderr and exit 1, matching how
read errors on regular (right) input files are reported. On receipt of
the end-of-stream marker, both consumers now do a final non-blocking
drain of the error channel, which is deterministic since the reader
sends any error before the marker.
Discovered while verifying #377.

Replaces 100+ if/else-if chains on a single variable with tagged switch
statements across 72 files. The bulk are transformer option-parsing loops
(switch on opt string), plus a handful of value-dispatch sites in mlrval,
dsl/cst, repl, lib, auxents, and bifs. One case (surv.go) required a
labeled break to preserve the loop-exit behavior of the original else branch.
Fixes staticcheck QF1003 findings.

* Switch to integer ranges in for loops

* Switch to slices functions where appropriate
A number of utility functions can be replaced outright; since Miller
can technically be used as a library, these are deprecated rather than
removed. go:fix directives ensure that they can be replaced
automatically.

This is slightly more efficient than TypeOf when the type is known at
