45/// Single value container
46///
47/// Uses an enum to represent different types of values, providing
48/// type-safe value storage and access.
49///
50/// # Features
51///
52/// - Zero-cost abstraction with compile-time type checking
53/// - Supports multiple basic data types
54/// - Provides two sets of APIs for type checking and type conversion
55/// - Automatic memory management
56///
57/// # Example
58///
59/// ```rust
60/// use qubit_value::Value;
61///
62/// // Create an integer value
63/// let value = Value::Int32(42);
64/// assert_eq!(value.get_int32().unwrap(), 42);
65///
66/// // Type conversion
67/// let converted = value.to::<i64>().unwrap();
68/// assert_eq!(converted, 42i64);
69///
70/// // String value
71/// let text = Value::String("hello".to_string());
72/// assert_eq!(text.get_string().unwrap(), "hello");
73/// ```

145/// Unified getter generation macro
146///
147/// Supports two modes:
148/// 1. `copy:` - For types implementing the Copy trait, directly returns the value
149/// 2. `ref:` - For non-Copy types, returns a reference
150///

152///
153/// The macro automatically extracts preceding documentation comments, so
154/// you can add `///` comments before macro invocations.
