/**
 * Per-request context with both typed well-known fields AND an open-ended
 * key-value map for ad-hoc data. Common fields (`actor`, `req`) are typed for
 * autocomplete / safety, while the generic `get`/`set` bag lets any code stash
 * per-request values without threading them through function arguments.
 *
 * Backed by Node's `AsyncLocalStorage`, so the context propagates through
 * async/await, timers, and microtasks automatically. The middleware
 * (`createRequestContextMiddleware`) wraps each incoming request in a fresh
 * context after the auth probe has populated `req.actor`.
 *
 * Usage:
 *
 * ```ts
 * // read typed field
 * const actor = Context.get('actor');
 *
 * // read the express request from anywhere
 * const req = Context.get('req');
 *
 * // stash / read ad-hoc values
 * Context.set('myService.txId', txId);
 * const txId = Context.get('myService.txId');
 * ```
