| * createPathGetter | |
| * ---------------- | |
| * Returns a high-performance, hybrid property accessor for dot-delimited paths. | |
| * | |
| * DESIGN: | |
| * - Cold paths (below `threshold` calls) use a manual string parse to avoid `.split()` allocations. | |
| * - Hot paths (≥ `threshold` calls) are promoted to precompiled accessors and cached for speed. | |
| * - Cache is capped (`maxCacheSize`) and evicts oldest hot paths (FIFO) to control memory growth. |
