+ * Lightweight debounce utility replacing lodash.debounce.
+ *
+ * Supports:
+ *   - Trailing-only (default): fires after `delay` ms of inactivity
+ *   - Leading+trailing: fires immediately on first call, then once more
+ *     on trailing edge if additional calls occurred during the delay
+ *   - cancel(): clears pending invocation and resets all state
+ *
+ * NOT supported (not needed by ParentSize):
+ *   - { trailing: false } option
+ *   - maxWait
+ *   - flush() / pending()
