"""
REDB Ingestor - Core ingestion orchestration.

This module contains the Ingestor class which orchestrates the entire
sample processing pipeline: querying catalogs, downloading from S3,
dispatching to workers, and collecting results.

The actual implementation is split across focused modules:
- redb.queries: Database query and deduplication functions
- redb.s3_utils: S3/MinIO client and file operations
- redb.workers: File processing and worker functions
- redb.logging_utils: Logging setup and ImportResult enum

For backward compatibility, all public names from these modules are
re-exported here so that `from redb.ingestor import *` continues to work.
