//! Database / transaction triggers.
//!
//! Port of JE `com.sleepycat.je.trigger.Trigger` + `TransactionTrigger`.
//!
//! A `Trigger` is a user-supplied callback object registered on a database via
//! [`crate::DatabaseConfig`].  The engine fires its methods on data changes
//! (`put` / `delete`) and on transaction resolution (`commit` / `abort`).
//!
//! # JE mapping (faithful)
//!
//! JE splits the contract across two Java interfaces that a single trigger
//! object may both implement:
//!
//! * `com.sleepycat.je.trigger.Trigger` — `getName`, lifecycle
//!   (`addTrigger` / `removeTrigger`) and the record operations
//!   `put(txn, key, oldData, newData)` / `delete(txn, key, oldData)`.
//! * `com.sleepycat.je.trigger.TransactionTrigger` — `commit(txn)` /
//!   `abort(txn)`, invoked from `Txn.commit` / `Txn.abort` for every database
//!   that was modified within the transaction (`TriggerManager.runCommitTriggers`
//!   / `runAbortTriggers`).
//!
//! JE dispatches to `TransactionTrigger` via `instanceof` (a trigger that does
//! not implement it simply has no commit/abort behaviour).  The Rust idiom is a
//! single `Trigger` trait whose `commit` / `abort` methods default to no-ops:
//! a trigger that only cares about record operations leaves them unimplemented,
//! exactly mirroring "does not implement `TransactionTrigger`".  This avoids a
//! second trait object and the downcast dance while preserving the JE
//! semantics.
//!
//! # Transaction argument
//!
//! JE passes the public `Transaction` handle.  Noxu passes the transaction id
//! (`Option<u64>`; `None` when the operation is non-transactional /
//! auto-commit) instead.  The trait lives in `noxu-dbi`, below `noxu-db` in the
//! dependency graph, so it cannot name `noxu_db::Transaction`; the id is the
//! faithful, dependency-clean signal of "which transaction this fired under"
//! and matches JE's `Transaction.getId()`.
//!
//! # Firing semantics (faithful to JE)
//!
//! * `put` / `delete` fire **within** the transaction, **after** the record
//!   modification has been applied — JE `Cursor.putNotify` /
//!   `Cursor.deleteInternal` call `TriggerManager.runPutTriggers` /
//!   `runDeleteTriggers` after the actual tree mutation.  A trigger therefore
//!   observes the change and can make accompanying changes under the same
//!   transaction; on abort those changes are rolled back with the transaction.
//! * `commit` / `abort` fire on the transaction's resolution, once per
//!   modified database, in trigger registration order (JE iterates
//!   `dbImpl.getTriggers()` in list order).
//! * Multiple triggers fire in **registration order** (JE stores them in a
//!   `List<Trigger>` and iterates it).
//!
//! # Persistence / replication adaptation (diverges from JE — documented)
//!
//! JE's `PersistentTrigger` serializes the trigger's *class name* into the
//! database record and re-instantiates the trigger by name on open.  A Rust
//! closure / trait object has no portable, reconstructable name, so — exactly
//! as the DBI-14 comparator API does — Noxu triggers are **runtime-registered
//! only**: they are *not* persisted and *not* replicated.  Applications must
//! re-register triggers on every [`crate::DatabaseConfig`] open.  This matches
//! JE's own current state: the `Trigger.java` Javadoc warns that "Only
//! transient triggers are currently supported" and that triggers "must be
//! configured on each node in a rep group separately".
