//! Authentication handler trait for Chain of Responsibility pattern.
//!
//! # Note on rocketmq-common::Handler
//!
//! While `rocketmq_common::common::chain::Handler<T, R>` provides a general-purpose
//! synchronous chain implementation, this module provides an authentication-specific
//! async handler optimized for the following requirements:
//!
//! - **Async operations**: Authentication requires async I/O (database, network)
//! - **Error propagation**: Uses `Result<(), AuthError>` with fail-fast semantics
//! - **Sequential execution**: Automatic chain progression without manual delegation
//! - **Type safety**: Specialized for `DefaultAuthenticationContext`
//!
//! The common Handler is better suited for synchronous request/response pipelines,
//! while this implementation is tailored for async authentication workflows.

/// Authentication handler trait.
///
/// This trait defines the interface for handlers in the authentication chain.
/// Unlike `rocketmq_common::Handler`, this is async-first and designed for
/// fail-fast error propagation in authentication scenarios.
///
/// # Design Pattern
///
/// This implements the Chain of Responsibility pattern, allowing multiple
/// handlers to process authentication requests in sequence.

    ///
    /// # Returns
    ///
    /// * `Ok(())` - Authentication succeeded
    /// * `Err(AuthError)` - Authentication failed
