//! Custom scalar trait and validation for user-defined scalars.
//!
//! This module provides a trait-based system for defining custom GraphQL scalars
//! at runtime, allowing applications to implement their own validation logic.
//!
//! # Example
//!
//! ```
//! use fraiseql_core::validation::CustomScalar;
//! use fraiseql_core::error::{FraiseQLError, Result};
//! use serde_json::Value;
//!
//! #[derive(Debug)]
//! struct Email;
//!
//! impl CustomScalar for Email {
//!     fn name(&self) -> &str {
//!         "Email"
//!     }
//!
//!     fn serialize(&self, value: &Value) -> Result<Value> {
//!         Ok(value.clone())
//!     }
//!
//!     fn parse_value(&self, value: &Value) -> Result<Value> {
//!         let str_val = value.as_str()
//!             .ok_or_else(|| FraiseQLError::parse("expected string"))?;
//!
//!         if !str_val.contains('@') {
//!             return Err(FraiseQLError::validation(
//!                 format!("invalid email format: {}", str_val)
//!             ));
//!         }
//!
//!         Ok(Value::String(str_val.to_string()))
//!     }
//!
//!     fn parse_literal(&self, ast: &Value) -> Result<Value> {
//!         self.parse_value(ast)
//!     }
//! }
//!
//! let email = Email;
//! assert_eq!(email.name(), "Email");
//! ```
