//! Constructor-object plumbing for product and sum structures.
//!
//! The "structure pattern" lives at two primitives, hand-called at each
//! struct boundary. There is no per-struct trait, no derive, no
//! procedural macro: callers compose [`alloc_ctor_with_objects`] and
//! [`take_ctor_objects`] field by field and let the per-field
//! [`super::traits::IntoLean`] / [`super::traits::TryFromLean`] impls
//! do the actual type marshalling.
//!
//! The module is the only place in `abi` that knows how
//! [`lean_alloc_ctor`], [`lean_ctor_obj_cptr`], and the constructor's
//! `tag`/`num_objs` invariants line up; container modules
//! (`crate::abi::option`, `crate::abi::except`) and downstream
//! handlers ship through these primitives instead of repeating the
//! pointer arithmetic. That keeps a single audited copy of the
//! ctor-allocation rules and centralises the `lean_inc`/`lean_dec`
//! reasoning.
//!
//! ### Lifetime and refcount invariants
//!
//! - [`alloc_ctor_with_objects`] consumes the input array of `Obj<'lean>`
//!   handles. Each handle's owned refcount is transferred—via
//!   [`Obj::into_raw`]—into the freshly allocated constructor's
//!   object-slot, so the new parent owns exactly one count per field plus
//!   its own header count. No `Obj::clone` (which would `lean_inc`) runs
//!   on the input path.
//! - [`take_ctor_objects`] reads each object slot once, calls `lean_inc`
//!   on the field, and wraps the bumped pointer in a fresh `Obj<'lean>`.
//!   The parent `Obj` is then dropped; its `lean_dec` walks back through
//!   the original per-field counts, leaving each returned handle with the
//!   same effective ownership the parent had given that field.
//! - [`ObjView`] / [`CtorView`] are borrow-only readers for constructor
//!   tags, scalar-tagged nullary constructors, and scalar-tail fields.
//!   They never expose raw pointers to callers and never touch the
//!   refcount.

// SAFETY DOC: every `unsafe { ... }` block in this file carries its own
// `// SAFETY:` comment naming the invariant; the blanket allow keeps the
// unsafe surface inside the smallest scope that compiles, per
// `docs/architecture/01-safety-model.md`.
