// live in logos-lidl (std-typed, language-neutral); this header brings those
// types into the global scope the backends use unqualified and adds thin
// Qt-friendly shims so the existing emission code (QTextStream) keeps
// compiling. The backends themselves (impl-header parsing, gen_client,
// gen_cdylib) stay here — they are the C++/Qt-specific parts.

// which leaves `FieldDecl::type` as T and sets `FieldDecl::optional`) and the
// type kind (`name: ?T`, which leaves the flag false and makes the type an
// Optional). logos-lidl's docs/spec.md binds them to the same meaning, so they
// MUST emit identical code — and the only way that holds is if no backend
// answers the question itself. Reading `f.optional` alone is a bug; reading
// `f.type.kind == Optional` alone is the same bug from the other side.
// fieldIsOptional() / fieldValueType() are the answer.

// such a record silently decodes as a byte string and the struct is gone. The
// ambiguity is inherent to the tagged form — the codec's own comment says not
// to name a map key `_bytes` — but a generator can at least refuse to emit the
// one shape that is guaranteed to misdecode, instead of leaving it to be
// discovered at runtime.
// Optionality does not rescue it: a PRESENT `? _bytes: tstr` still encodes to
// {"_bytes": "..."}, which is the ambiguous shape. So the check reads through
// the optional — via fieldValueType, not f.type — and refuses both spellings.
// Reading f.type here refused `? _bytes: tstr` (whose type stays Primitive
// tstr) while letting `_bytes: ?tstr` straight through: one declaration, two
// answers, which is the exact drift the accessors exist to prevent.
