Shipment
Per-edge shipment-formation policy passed to a MultiEchelonNetwork attach method. When a non-null ShipmentFormation is supplied, the network installs a DemandLoadBuilder on the supplier node keyed by the customer. Outbound demands flow through the builder and are bundled into loads per the option.
Only meaningful when the supplier node was added with enableShipmentFormation = true (which installs a ksl.modeling.supplychain.transport.TimeBasedLoadCarrier for the node) and the network's TransportStrategy is TransportStrategy.PerIHPTimeBased. Other strategies do not support per-edge formation in this phase.
