//! `SnapshotSource` implementation that fetches ledger entries on demand.
//!
//! The VM asks for a ledger entry via [`SnapshotSource::get`]; we check the
//! in-memory cache first and, on miss, defer to an [`RpcClient`]. Results
//! (including confirmed-missing entries) are memoized so the second lookup
//! of the same key is always local.
//!
//! # Thread-safety & internal representation
//!
//! Cached entries live as **XDR-encoded bytes** in a `Mutex<BTreeMap>`,
//! decoded back into a fresh `Rc<LedgerEntry>` only when the SDK's
//! [`SnapshotSource::get`] hands one out across the trait boundary.
//! Storing bytes (rather than `Rc<LedgerEntry>` directly) is what lets the
//! struct be `Send + Sync`: `Rc` is intentionally single-threaded, so any
//! `Rc` inside a shared field would taint the whole type. With bytes, the
//! shared cache is fully thread-safe; the per-call `Rc` is created on the
//! consumer's thread inside `get` and never crosses a boundary.
//!
//! Decode cost on a cache hit is the XDR-parse of one `LedgerEntry`
//! (microseconds for typical entries). The cost is paid on every call to
//! `get`, including hits — if profiling ever shows this on a hot path, a
//! per-thread parsed-entry memoization layer can be added without changing
//! the public API.
