//! VirtualOverlayBackend: Routes /v/* paths to internal VFS while delegating everything else.
//!
//! This backend is designed for embedders who provide their own `KernelBackend` but want
//! kaish's virtual filesystems (like `/v/jobs` for job observability) to work automatically.
//!
//! # Usage
//!
//! Prefer using `Kernel::with_backend()` which handles overlay setup automatically:
//!
//! ```ignore
//! let kernel = Kernel::with_backend(my_backend, config, |vfs| {
//!     vfs.mount_arc("/v/docs", docs_fs);
//! }, |_| {})?;
//! ```
//!
//! # Path Routing
//!
//! Routing is by *mount coverage* (longest prefix), not by a lexical `/v`
//! reservation:
//!
//! - Any path covered by a mount on the internal VFS (`/v/jobs`, `/v/blobs`,
//!   `/dev`, a `configure_vfs` mount) → routed to the VFS.
//! - An *unclaimed* path under `/v` (e.g. an embedder's own `/v/cas`) → falls
//!   through to the custom backend, so an embedder can mount its own storage
//!   under `/v` without kaish shadowing it. (Previously the whole `/v`
//!   namespace was reserved and a miss returned `NotFound`.)
//! - A shared *ancestor* directory like `/v` — no mount of its own, but sitting
//!   above `/v/jobs` — is presented as the *union* of both layers: `list`
//!   merges the embedder's entries with kaish's child mounts, and `stat`/
//!   `exists` synthesize it as a directory when the embedder lacks it.
//! - Everything else → custom backend
