/// Named multiple values
///
/// A container that associates a readable name with a set of `MultiValues`, suitable for
/// organizing data in key-value (name-multiple values) scenarios, such as configuration items,
/// command-line parameter aggregation, structured log fields, etc.
///
/// # Features
///
/// - Provides clear name identification for multiple value collections
/// - Transparently reuses all capabilities of `MultiValues` through `Deref/DerefMut`
/// - Supports `serde` serialization and deserialization
///
/// # Use Cases
///
/// - Aggregating a set of ports, hostnames, etc., as semantically meaningful fields
/// - Outputting named multiple value lists in configurations/logs
///
/// # Example
///
/// ```rust
/// use common_rs::util::value::{NamedMultiValues, MultiValues};
///
/// // Identify a group of ports with the name "ports"
/// let named = NamedMultiValues::new(
///     "ports",
///     MultiValues::Int32(vec![8080, 8081, 8082])
/// );
///
/// assert_eq!(named.name(), "ports");
/// assert_eq!(named.count(), 3);
/// ```

impl NamedMultiValues {
    /// Create a new named multiple values
    ///
    /// Associates a given name with `MultiValues`, generating a container that can be referenced by name.
    ///
    /// # Use Cases
    ///
    /// - Building configuration fields (e.g., `servers`, `ports`, etc.)
    /// - Binding parsed multiple value results to semantic names
    ///
    /// # Parameters
