/**
 * @module db/types
 * @description Shared types for the 8.0 generational-MVCC Db API: the
 * declarative transaction-operation union consumed by `brain.transact()`,
 * the options bags for `transact()` / `compactHistory()`, the persisted
 * record shapes of the generational record layer, and the narrow storage
 * contract (`GenerationStorage`) the record layer needs from an adapter.
 *
 * Persisted layout (all paths relative to the storage root):
 *
 * ```
 * _system/generation.json        — { generation, updatedAt }   (atomic tmp+rename)
 * _system/manifest.json          — { version, generation, committedAt, horizon }
 *                                   (atomic tmp+rename — the rename IS the commit point)
 * _system/tx-log.jsonl           — one JSON line per committed transact:
 *                                   { generation, timestamp, meta? }  (append-only)
 * _generations/<N>/tx.json       — the generation-N delta: touched noun/verb ids + meta
 * _generations/<N>/prev/<id>.json — immutable before-image of <id> as of commit N
 * ```
 *
 * Design note: the manifest holds the committed watermark + compaction
 * horizon rather than a full `id → latest record generation` map. The id
 * mapping is distributed across the per-generation `tx.json` deltas, which
 * makes each commit O(ids touched) instead of O(all ids) — see
 * `docs/ADR-001-generational-mvcc.md` for the full justification.
