///    type+positional fallback cannot fully resolve; see the regression test
///    `preserve_masked_connect_secrets_resolves_duplicate_type_by_id_even_when_reordered`
///    below). The id match is guarded by the same type-consistency check as
///    strategy 2: a patch entry whose `type` DISAGREES with the id-matched
///    entry's `platform_type` (e.g. a stale/reused id after a client-side
///    bug, or a flow that repurposes an entry's identity for a different
///    platform) must not inherit the differently-typed entry's secret — a
///    Telegram bot token pasted into a Feishu adapter is never right. Such
///    a mismatch falls through to strategies 2/3 (which will also refuse a
///    cross-type resolution, dropping the mask — same as "nothing configured
///    yet"). A patch entry with an `id` but no `type` at all can't be
///    checked and resolves on id alone, mirroring strategy 2's handling of
///    a missing `type`. Legacy entries without an id (or a patch from a
///    client that doesn't echo it back) simply fall through to strategy 2.
/// 2. **Positional + type guard** — patch index `i` is resolved against
///    `current.connect.platforms[i]`, guarded by `type` equality at that
///    index. This mirrors how the settings UI round-trips the list (it
///    always sends the full array back in the same order it was fetched in
///    — the same convention `env_vars`' full-array replace relies on).
/// 3. **Type-based fallback (#490)** — when the positional entry's type
///    disagrees with the patch entry's `type` (or the patch index is beyond
///    `current.connect.platforms`), fall back to
///    `current.connect.platforms.iter().find(|p| p.platform_type == patch_type)`.
///    This is safe because `multi_bot_guard` (#462) means only the FIRST
///    entry of a given type is ever started, so resolving to any same-typed
///    entry is strictly better than silently wiping the secret. Only when no
///    entry of that type exists anywhere in `current` does the mask get

/// `#[serde(default)]`:
/// - `Option<T>` field → default is `None` → **the value is cleared/unset**.
///   This is the fix issue #505 asks for (e.g. `subagents.claude_code_binary:
///   null` un-sets a previously-written override).
/// - `Vec<T>` / `HashMap<K, V>` field reached directly (i.e. `null` sits at
///   the position of the *whole* collection, not one of its entries) →
///   default is empty → **the whole collection resets to empty/default**.
///   Per the design note in #505: a `null` *inside* an array never reaches

///   inside an array delete that element" does not apply — only "does a
///   null in place of the whole array delete the array" does, and the

///   `""`).
/// - A key one level inside a map keyed by dynamic strings (e.g.
///   `provider_instances`, `mcpServers`) → since JSON can't distinguish a
///   struct's named fields from a `HashMap`'s dynamic keys, the same rule
///   removes just that one entry — **this is how a client deletes a single
///   provider instance or MCP server** (`provider_instances: { "<id>": null
///   }`).
///
/// A patch that wants to clear ONE field of a nested config (e.g. just
/// `providers.openai.api_key`) should send `null` at that leaf, not at an
/// enclosing object — `providers: { openai: null }` wipes the *entire*
/// openai provider config (model, base_url, api_key, everything), not just
/// the key. Both are valid, opt-in RFC 7386 semantics; callers choose their
/// blast radius by choosing which level they null out.
///
/// ## Secret-field composition (must NOT be bypassed)
///
/// This function is intentionally unaware of which fields are secrets. The

/// clear/set *intents* from the RAW patch object (via
/// [`provider_api_key_intents`], [`notification_secret_intents`],
/// [`connect_secret_intents`]) **before** calling this function — those
/// intent extractors now treat `null` on `api_key` / `token` / `device_key`
/// / `app_secret` identically to an explicit `""`: both are a "clear"
/// intent, distinct from an absent field ("leave alone") and from a masked
/// placeholder ("keep existing"). This preserves the precedence chain
/// established by #516/#517/#521/#522:
/// 1. masked placeholder → resolved back to the current plaintext (a `null`
///    is never masked — `is_masked_api_key` only matches strings — so this
///    step is a no-op for a `null` clear, which is correct: nothing should
///    resurrect a value the caller explicitly asked to delete).
/// 2. explicit clear intent (`""` OR `null`) → the merge (this function)
///    removes/empties the field, then `clear_*_ciphertext_for_explicit_clears`
///    drops the round-tripped ciphertext so hydration can't refill it.
