Previously, Cycle.equals() compared only the vertex *sets* of two cycles, meaning two directed cycles with the same vertices but different traversal orders (e.g., A→B→C→A vs A→C→B→A) would incorrectly be considered equal. This could cause the cycle enumeration to miss valid distinct cycles in directed graphs. Fixed by replacing the set-based comparison with a canonical rotation form: cycles are rotated so the lexicographically smallest vertex is first, then compared as ordered lists. This preserves rotation equivalence while correctly distinguishing different directions.

Bug Fix
Problem: CycleAnalyzer.Cycle.equals() compared only vertex sets, so two directed cycles with identical vertices but different traversal orders (e.g., A->B->C->A vs A->C->B->A) were incorrectly considered equal.
Fix: Replaced set-based comparison with canonical rotation form. Cycles are rotated so the lexicographically smallest vertex is first, then compared as ordered lists. Preserves rotation equivalence while distinguishing direction.
Impact: Directed graph cycle analysis now correctly identifies distinct cycles sharing the same vertex set.
