//! `SharedRWLock` - cross-process reader-writer lock with writer
//! priority.
//!
//! Multiple concurrent readers OR exactly one writer. When a writer
//! is waiting, new readers block to prevent writer starvation.
//!
//! # State encoding
//!
//! ONE AtomicU64 packed:
//! - bit 63: writer active (1 if a writer holds the lock)
//! - bits 32-62: writers waiting count (31 bits)
//! - bits 0-31: reader count (32 bits)
//!
//! All transitions are single CAS so observers never see torn state.
