//! Heap-allocated wrapper for variable-length secrets.
//!
//! > **Import path:** `use secure_gate::Dynamic;` (not `secure_gate::dynamic::Dynamic`)
//!
//! [`Dynamic<T>`] is a zero-cost wrapper that enforces explicit, auditable access to
//! sensitive data stored on the heap. It is the primary secret type for variable-length
//! material such as passwords, API keys, and ciphertexts. Requires the `alloc` feature.
//!
//! # Security invariants
//!
//! - **No `Deref`, `AsRef`, or `Copy`** — the inner value cannot leak through
//!   implicit conversions.
//! - **`Debug` always prints `[REDACTED]`** — secrets never appear in logs or
//!   panic messages.
//! - **Unconditional zeroization on drop** — includes `Vec`/`String` spare capacity.
//! - **Heap-only** — secret bytes never reside on the stack. Inner value stored in `Box<T>`.
//! - **Opt-in `Clone`** — requires `T: CloneableSecret` and the `cloneable` feature.
//! - **Opt-in `Serialize`/`Deserialize`** — requires marker traits and the
//!   `serde-serialize`/`serde-deserialize` features.
//! - **Panic safety** — all decode constructors use the `from_protected_bytes` pattern:
//!   a `Zeroizing` wrapper survives OOM panics from `Box::new`.
//!
//! # Choosing the inner type for security
//!
//! Different inner types have different reallocation-residue profiles:
//!
//! | Inner type | Realloc surface | Use case |
//! |---|---|---|
//! | `Dynamic<[u8; N]>` (boxed array) | **None** — fixed size | Long-lived known-size keys held on the heap |
//! | `Dynamic<Vec<u8>>` pre-sized | None *if* you avoid capacity-growing mutations | Variable-length secrets with a known upper bound |
//! | `Dynamic<Vec<u8>>` growable | **Yes** — each realloc leaves the old buffer unzeroed | Convenient, but see realloc-residue warning below |
//! | `Dynamic<String>` | Same as `Dynamic<Vec<u8>>` | Passwords, API keys |
//!
//! For **long-lived, known-size key material**, prefer `Dynamic<[u8; N]>` —
//! it combines `Dynamic`'s heap-only property with zero realloc surface.
//! See `SECURITY.md` § "Inherent Rust Limitations" for the broader discussion.
//!
//! # Construction
//!
//! | Constructor | Notes |
//! |---|---|
//! | [`Dynamic::new(value)`](Dynamic::new) | Ergonomic default; accepts `String`, `Vec<u8>`, `&str`, `Box<T>`, etc. |
//! | [`Dynamic::<Vec<u8>>::new_with(f)`](Dynamic::new_with) | Scoped; for API symmetry with [`Fixed::new_with`](crate::Fixed::new_with) |
//! | [`Dynamic::<String>::new_with(f)`](Dynamic::new_with) | Scoped; for API symmetry |
//!
//! Unlike [`Fixed::new_with`](crate::Fixed::new_with), `Dynamic` is already heap-only so
//! `new_with` exists for consistent API idiom, not for stack-residue avoidance.
//!
//! # 3-tier access model
//!
//! ```rust
//! # #[cfg(feature = "alloc")]
//! # {
//! use secure_gate::{Dynamic, RevealSecret, RevealSecretMut, SecretLen};
//!
//! let mut pw: Dynamic<String> = Dynamic::new(String::from("hunter2"));
//!
//! // Tier 1 — scoped (preferred): borrow is confined to the closure.
//! let len = pw.with_secret(|s: &String| s.len());
//! assert_eq!(len, 7);
//!
//! // Tier 1 mutable — scoped mutation. Prefer capacity-stable mutations for
//! // Dynamic<String> / Dynamic<Vec<u8>>; see SECURITY.md for realloc notes.
//! pw.with_secret_mut(|s: &mut String| s.make_ascii_uppercase());
//!
//! // Tier 2 — direct reference (escape hatch).
//! assert_eq!(pw.expose_secret(), "HUNTER2");
//!
//! // Tier 3 — owned consumption.
//! let owned = pw.into_inner();
//! assert_eq!(format!("{:?}", owned), "[REDACTED]");
//! # }
//! ```
//!
//! # Warning
//!
//! Ensure your profile sets `panic = "unwind"` — `panic = "abort"` skips destructors
//! and therefore skips zeroization. (`Dynamic` cannot be `static` since it requires
//! `Box` allocation, so the static-secret warning from `Fixed` does not apply.)
//!
//! For `Dynamic<Vec<_>>` and `Dynamic<String>`, capacity-changing mutations can
//! cause the standard allocator to free the previous buffer without zeroizing it.
//! Pre-allocate to the maximum size, use capacity-stable mutations, prefer
//! `Dynamic<[u8; N]>` (no realloc surface) for known-size heap secrets, or use
//! [`Fixed<T>`](crate::Fixed) for known-size stack secrets. See `SECURITY.md` for
//! the full threat-model discussion and deployment-level mitigations including
//! the [`zeroizing-alloc`](https://crates.io/crates/zeroizing-alloc) global
//! allocator.
//!
//! # See also
//!
//! - [`Fixed<T>`](crate::Fixed) — stack-allocated alternative for fixed-size secrets
//!   (always available, no `alloc` required).
