/**
* @brief Registry-based factory for creating objects by runtime identifier.
*
* Allows registering derived types and instantiating them using a ClassId key.
*
* Notes:
* - Not thread-safe. Register types during initialization phase only.
* - Re-registering the same id overwrites the previous entry ("last wins").
* - ClassId must be hashable (std::hash<ClassId> specialization must exist).
*
* @tparam ClassId -Unique class identifier type (e.g. std::string, int, enum).
* @tparam BaseClass -Base type for all created objects.
* @tparam Arg - Constructor arguments forwarded to registered derived types (by value).
*
* Usage example:
* @code
* #include <string>
*
* struct Base {
* virtual ~Base() = default;
* virtual int get() = 0;
* };
*
* struct Derived1 : Base {
* explicit Derived1(int start) : m_start(start) {}
* int get() override { return m_start + 1; }
* int m_start = 0;
* };
*
* struct Derived2 : Base {
* explicit Derived2(int start) : m_start(start) {}
* int get() override { return m_start + 2; }
* int m_start = 0;
* };
*
* TypeFactory<std::string, Base, int> factory;
* factory.registerType<Derived1>("one");
* factory.registerType<Derived2>("two");
*
* auto a = factory.create("one", 10);
* auto b = factory.creator("two")(10); // advanced API: get creator function
*
* (void)a->get();
* (void)b->get();
* @endcode
