//! Dynamic field-level configuration handles.
//!
//! This module provides fine-grained dynamic configuration handles:
//! - [`DynamicField`] - Field-level dynamic property handle with lock-free reads
//! - [`FieldWatcher`] - Field-level change observer for specific fields
//!
//! Design advantages (benchmarking against Netflix Archaius DynamicProperty):
//! - Field-level precision: Only notify when the specific field value actually changes
//! - True lock-free reads: ArcSwap based on RCU mechanism, O(1) read operations
//! - High concurrency callback registration: DashMap replaces Mutex\<Vec\>
//! - CallbackGuard: RAII-based callback lifecycle management
