Description: Extends the 'algebraic.dist' distribution algebra to
        random variables with internal structure: coherent reliability
        systems decomposed into components arranged by a structure
        function (series, parallel, k-out-of-n, bridge, and arbitrary
        topologies via minimal path sets). Every 'dist_structure'
        object is a 'dist', so the full distribution algebra (mean,
        vcov, sampler, surv, cdf) works automatically via default
        methods that compose component-level distributions through the
        topology. Adds structural queries: structure function
        evaluation, minimal path and cut sets, system signature,
        critical states, dual, Birnbaum structural importance, and
        system reliability. Topology shortcut constructors
        (series_dist, parallel_dist, kofn_dist, bridge_dist) produce
        ready-to-use dists from component dists and a chosen structure.
