//! Echo prevention guard for sync operations.
//!
//! When applying remote changes locally, we must NOT re-emit WAL events —
//! otherwise those events would be pushed back to the remote, creating an
//! infinite sync loop.
//!
//! The [`SyncApplyGuard`] uses a thread-local `Cell<bool>` flag that WAL
//! recording and watch emission check before writing. The guard sets the
//! flag on creation and clears it on drop (RAII pattern).
//!
//! # Performance
//!
//! `Cell::get()` compiles to a single memory load — no atomic operations,
//! no contention, <10ns overhead per check.
//!
//! # Example
//!
//! ```rust
//! use pulsedb::sync::guard::{SyncApplyGuard, is_sync_applying};
//!
//! assert!(!is_sync_applying());
//!
//! {
//!     let _guard = SyncApplyGuard::enter();
//!     assert!(is_sync_applying());
//! }
//!
//! assert!(!is_sync_applying());
//! ```
