Rerun Chunk Processing

Core mechanics of the Rerun Chunk Processing API (rerun.chunk) — LazyChunkStream pipelines, Chunk, lenses (MutateLens/DeriveLens/Selector), RrdReader, writing optimized RRDs. Read BEFORE writing any ingestion/conversion/preprocessing code (convert an MCAP, build a recording from a dataset, preprocess an .rrd, port an old converter): it mandates reader+lens pipelines and steers away from hand-built chunks — no Chunk.from_columns for data a reader/lens can produce, no per-message rr.log, no manual pa.array assembly. Source-specific knowledge lives in the importer skills (rerun-mcap, rerun-urdf, rerun-parquet, rerun-mp4, rerun-lerobot); read rerun-data-model first to decide what the data should become.
