 * @file numparse.h
 * @brief Tiny no-stdlib base-10 number parsers (strtol/strtoul/strtof replacements).
 *
 * This library does not pull in `<stdlib.h>` - no heap, no locale, no bloat. These
 * header-only inline helpers parse a base-10 integer / unsigned / float from a
 * string, mirroring the `strtol`-family `endptr` contract: skip leading
 * whitespace, accept an optional sign, consume digits, and (optionally) report
 * where parsing stopped. If no digit is converted, `*end` is set to the original
 * pointer (so callers can detect "no number") and the result is 0.
