  * Spawn an actor from a machine.

- * Options:
- * - `id` — custom actor ID (default: random)
- * - `hydrate` — restore from a previously-saved state snapshot.
- * - `slots` — slot handler implementations for slotful machines.
+ * For machines with slots, pass implementations via `{ slots: { ... } }`.
+ *
+ * @example
+ * ```ts
+ * // No slots
+ * const actor = yield* Machine.spawn(machine);
+ *
+ * // With slots
+ * const actor = yield* Machine.spawn(machine, {
+ *   slots: { canRetry: ({ max }) => attempts < max },
