v2.16: Mixed-Precision K-Means

Many data scientists embark on their journey by implementing K-Means clustering, much like app developers starting with a calculator. But despite K-Means’ popularity, most implementations overlook the power of SIMD on modern CPUs. Efficient vector math, especially with single- and double-precision floating-point vectors, is challenging due to the computational cost of accuracy. Meanwhile, float16, bfloat16, and smaller types can fail under uneven distributions or when computing centroids for large clusters. So, what’s Unum’s solution? Mixed precision!

Thanks to strong community support and sponsorship from @sutoiku (LinkedIn, Website), we're introducing a high-performance K-Means implementation! It utilizes any numeric type for distance calculations, switching to float64 for centroid updates, a technique that boosts performance and enables billion-scale clustering on a single machine.

`bf16` by default, even in Python 🐍

Previously, on modern CPUs the USearch index would default to f16 IEEE 16-bit floating point numbers, when used through high-level bindings, like Python. That format is more common in the Pythonic ecosystem, and it's supported by NumPy. Still, it's much less efficient and harder to convert to/from f32. The alternative is to use bf16, which is more hardware friendly, and upcast to f32, when we need to export the data back to Python. That's the new default behavior.

What's Changed

• Default to bf16 by @ashvardanian in #465
