//! # qubit-metadata
//!
//! A general-purpose, type-safe, extensible metadata model for Rust.
//!
//! This crate provides a [`Metadata`] type — a structured key-value store
//! designed for any domain that needs to attach typed annotations to its data
//! models. It is not a plain `HashMap` — it is a structured extensibility point
//! with type-safe access, [`qubit_value::Value`] backing, and first-class
//! `serde` support.
//!
//! ## Design Goals
//!
//! - **Type Safety**: Typed get/set API backed by [`qubit_value::Value`]
//! - **Generality**: No domain-specific assumptions — usable in any Rust project
//! - **Schema Support**: Optional [`MetadataSchema`] validation for metadata and filters
//! - **Serialization**: First-class `serde` support for JSON interchange
//! - **Filtering**: [`MetadataFilter`] for composable query conditions
//!
//! ## Features
//!
//! - Core type: [`Metadata`] — an ordered key-value store with typed accessors
//! - Schema type: [`MetadataSchema`] — field definitions based on [`qubit_datatype::DataType`]
//! - Filter type: [`MetadataFilter`] — composable filter expressions for metadata queries
//! - Condition type: [`Condition`] — individual comparison predicates
//! - Error type: [`MetadataError`] — explicit failure reporting for `try_*` APIs
//!
//! ## Example
//!
//! ```rust
//! use qubit_metadata::{Metadata, MetadataFilter};
//!
//! let meta = Metadata::new()
//!     .with("author", "alice")
//!     .with("priority", 3_i64);
//!
//! // Convenience API: missing key and type mismatch both collapse to None.
//! let author: Option<String> = meta.get("author");
//! assert_eq!(author.as_deref(), Some("alice"));
//!
//! // Explicit API: preserve failure reasons for diagnostics.
//! let priority = meta.try_get::<i64>("priority").unwrap();
//! assert_eq!(priority, 3);
//!
//! let filter = MetadataFilter::builder()
//!     .eq("author", "alice")
//!     .and_ge("priority", 1_i64)
//!     .build()
//!     .unwrap();
//! assert!(filter.matches(&meta));
//! ```
//!
