+/**
+ * renderHandler — run a REAL route handler and assert what it renders.
+ *
+ * A Rango route handler is a pure function `(ctx) => RSC` (what you pass to
+ * `path("/p/:slug", ProductPage)`), NOT a component. To test one faithfully you
+ * must give it the HandlerContext the router builds at runtime, so `ctx.params`,
+ * `ctx.use(Loader)`, `ctx.use(Meta)` / `ctx.use(Breadcrumbs)` (handles),
+ * `ctx.reverse`, `ctx.get`/`ctx.header`/`cookies()` all work. renderHandler does
+ * exactly that, then serializes the handler's returned RSC and deserializes it
+ * to an inspectable tree (same serialize/deserialize core as renderServerTree).
+ *
+ * Loaders are SEEDED (no real loader execution) the same way `runLoader` seeds
+ * them — pass `loaders: [[ProductLoader, data]]`. Handle pushes
+ * (`ctx.use(Meta)({...})`) are captured on `result.handles`. The handler's
+ * cookie/header/flash effects and a thrown/returned redirect are surfaced too
+ * (like `runInRequestContext`). If the handler returns/throws a `Response`
+ * (a response route / `throw redirect()`), there is no RSC `tree`.
+ *
+ * Must run under the `react-server` export condition (the rsc Vitest project).
+ * Wire `rangoUseClientTransform()` so `"use client"` islands in the handler's RSC
+ * auto-register (or pass `clientComponents`).

+/**
+ * renderRoute — a React-Testing-Library-style helper for unit-testing CLIENT
+ * components that read @rangojs/router client context (useParams, useReverse,

+ * Peer of React Router's createRoutesStub and Expo Router's renderRouter. It
+ * mounts the router's NavigationProvider plus a synthetic segment tree so that
+ * a component under test sees real router context, without spinning up a
+ * server, a Vite build, or a real Flight round-trip.
+ *
+ * FIDELITY CONTRACT — read before relying on this helper:
+ * This renders the CLIENT tree ONLY. The segment tree is built synthetically
+ * from the `routes` you pass; there is no server render and no Flight
+ * (de)serialization. Consequences:
+ *   - It will NOT catch server/client boundary reference-identity remount bugs
+ *     (a server-serialized component reference differing from the client
+ *     reference). Use renderServerTree / e2e for those.
+ *   - It will NOT catch real Flight serialization errors (non-serializable
+ *     props crossing the RSC boundary), loader execution on the server,
+ *     middleware, or handler ordering. Those are renderServerTree / renderHandler
+ *     / e2e territory.
+ *   - Loader data, location state, and handle output are SEEDED directly into
+ *     client context (see the `loaders` / `locationState` / `handles` options) —
+ *     nothing is executed on the server. This exercises the read path
+ *     (useLoader / useLocationState / useHandle from context), not the run path.
+ *   - navigate() commits synchronously, so it does NOT drive the navigation
+ *     lifecycle: useNavigation().state, useLinkStatus().pending, and
+ *     useAction().state stay "idle". Assert pending/loading/submitting transition
+ *     states with renderServerTree / e2e instead (navigate() warns once if used).
+ * What it DOES cover: client hooks that read NavigationProvider /
+ * OutletContext — useParams, useReverse, useHref, useMount, useNavigation,
+ * useRouter, usePathname, useSearchParams, Outlet nesting, useLoader /
+ * useFetchLoader (seeded data), useLocationState (seeded), and useHandle (seeded).
+ * Basename-mounted apps: pass the `basename` option so useRouter().basename,
+ * <Link> prefixing, and useMount/useHref resolve against the mount prefix
+ * (without it they resolve at the root "/"). For an include("/shop", ...)
+ * subtree, pass the `mount` option so useMount() returns the mounted prefix

+ * mutations resolve exactly as in production.

+ * Limitations (v1):

+ * - `ctx.reverse()` throws unless `routeMap` is provided (it does NOT fall back

+ * - `ctx.use(handle)` follows the production rule: reading a handle before

+ * - `use cache` functions only cache (and only fire their taint/profile guards)

+ *   bypasses (it checks for a store first). Pass `cacheStore`/`cacheProfiles`
+ *   to exercise cached loaders; otherwise such a call runs uncached, like an
+ *   app with no cache configured.
+ * - `formData` is exposed verbatim; no multipart parsing is performed.
+ * - Scoped dot-local reverse (`.sibling`) uses only the supplied `routeMap`;
