/**
 * Creates a client with configurable fetch implementation
 * @param options Client options including optional fetch function, limiter configuration, and AbortSignal
 * @returns Object containing all HackerNews API methods
 *
 * Example with AbortSignal:
 * ```ts
 * // Create an AbortController to cancel requests when needed
 * const controller = new AbortController();
 * const client = createClient({ signal: controller.signal });
 *
 * // Later, to cancel all in-flight requests:
 * controller.abort();
 * ```
 *
 * Example with custom rate limiting:
 * ```ts
 * // Create a client with custom rate limiting
 * const client = createClient({
 *   limiter: {
 *     maxConcurrent: 10,       // Allow up to 10 concurrent requests
 *     minTime: 100,            // Minimum 100ms between requests
 *     reservoir: 50,           // Allow bursts up to 50 requests
 *     reservoirRefreshAmount: 10,  // Refill 10 tokens at a time
 *     reservoirRefreshInterval: 1000  // Refill every 1 second
 *   }
 * });
 * ```
