Sums/Diffs

# EVOLVE-BLOCK-START
"""
MSTD Optimization for Constant C(A) = log(|A+A|/|A|) / log(|A-A|/|A|).

Approach:
1. Parameterized Multi-Modulus Sweep:
   Systematically evaluates generalized Penman-Wells families across moduli
   M in {32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72, 80, 88, 96, 104, 112} across boundary variants,
   half-period inclusions, odd progression bounds, and fringe extensions.
2. High-Efficiency Exact Bitmask Engine:
   Computes exact sumset and difference set sizes in ~15 microseconds using C-level
   Python arbitrary-precision bit shifts and popcount (.bit_count()).
3. Multi-Operator Alternating Hill-Climber:
   - Single-element removals (pruning redundant elements to reduce |A| and suppress diffs)
   - Zero-leakage interior and fringe additions
   - Boundary & fringe element swaps (x in A -> y not in A)
   - 2-lookahead additions and removals
   - Iterated Local Search (ILS) with perturbation kicks to escape local optima
