Convert from a search result

from infrastructure.reference.citation import paper_to_bibentry, generate_citation_key
from infrastructure.search.literature import Paper

paper = Paper(id="x", title="Adam", authors=["Kingma, Diederik P", "Ba, Jimmy"], year=2014, venue="ICLR", venue_type="conference")
entry = paper_to_bibentry(paper)        # entry_type → "inproceedings", key → "kingma2014adam"

# Override either field:
entry = paper_to_bibentry(paper, citation_key="my_custom_key", entry_type="misc")

# Or generate a key without converting:
key = generate_citation_key(authors=["Cauchy, Augustin-Louis"], year=1847, title="Méthode générale")
# → "cauchy1847methode"
