1//! Zero-copy, tag-validated optional values for instruction args.
2//!
3//! Rust's `Option<T>` has niche-optimizing layout rules that make it
4//! unsafe to pointer-cast from raw instruction bytes. `Option<u8>` is
5//! two bytes with an undefined tag range; `Option<&T>` uses null for
6//! `None`. Neither is a layout the caller controls.
7//!
8//! `OptionByte<T>` is the Hopper replacement for args. Layout:
9//!
10//! ```text
11//! #[repr(C)]
12//! { tag: u8, value: T }
13//! ```
14//!
15//! `tag == 0` is `None`, `tag == 1` is `Some`. Any other tag byte is
16//! a protocol error and [`OptionByte::get`] surfaces it as
17//! `ProgramError::InvalidInstructionData`. This mirrors Quasar's
18//! `OptionZc<T>::validate_zc` contract with one fewer type parameter
19//! and no `MaybeUninit` escape hatch.
20//!
21//! ## Usage
22//!
23//! ```ignore
24//! #[hopper::args]
25//! #[repr(C)]
26//! pub struct SwapArgs {
27//! pub amount: u64,
28//! pub referrer: OptionByte<[u8; 32]>,
29//! pub slippage_bps: u16,
30//! }
31//!
32//! fn handler(ctx: Context<Swap>, args: &SwapArgs) -> ProgramResult {
33//! if let Some(referrer) = args.referrer.get()? {
34//! // referrer is &[u8; 32]
35//! }
36//! Ok(())
37//! }
38//! ```
