Description: Provides utilities for runtime hotpatching of locked R
        package namespaces. The package enables dynamic injection of
        function patches into sealed package environments without
        rebuilding or redeploying the package. This is particularly
        useful for legacy containerized workflows where package
        versions are frozen in place. The core functionality includes
        inject_patch() to inject patches into package namespaces,
        undo_patch() to restore original functions, apply_hotfix_file()
        to apply patches from external R scripts, and
        test_patched_dir() to run test suites against patched packages.
        The package implements namespace surgery techniques that allow
        internal callers to automatically see patched functions.
