+/** Chimney derivation engine as API.
+  *
+  * Intended usage:
+  *
+  *   1. Implement your own derivation rules in a mixins based on implementation-agnostic API:
+  *
+  * {{{
+  * trait MyOwnImplicitRuleModule { this: DerivationEngine =>
+  *
+  *   protected object MyOwnImplicitRule extends Rule("MyOwnImplicit") {
+  *
+  *     def expand[From, To](implicit ctx: TransformationContext[From, To]): DerivationResult[Rule.ExpansionRule[To] =
+  *       ...
+  *   }
+  * }
+  * }}}
+  *
+  * (Do the same when you need more types and utility methods shared between 2 different macro implementations.)
+  *
+  * 2. Mix-in with the implementation for Scala 2/Scala 3 macros:
+  *
+  * {{{
+  * // Scala 2
+  * trait MyMacrosImpl
+  *     extends DerivationEngineImpl
+  *     with StandardRules
+  *     with MyOwnImplicitRuleModule {
+  *
+  *   final override protected val rulesAvailableForPlatform: List[Rule] = List(
+  *     MyOwnImplicitRule,
+  *     TransformSubtypesRule,
+  *     TransformToSingletonRule,
+  *     TransformOptionToOptionRule,
+  *     TransformPartialOptionToNonOptionRule,
+  *     TransformToOptionRule,
+  *     TransformValueClassToValueClassRule,
+  *     TransformValueClassToTypeRule,
+  *     TransformTypeToValueClassRule,
+  *     TransformEitherToEitherRule,
+  *     TransformMapToMapRule,
+  *     TransformIterableToIterableRule,
+  *     TransformProductToProductRule,
+  *     TransformSealedHierarchyToSealedHierarchyRule
+  *   )
+  * }
+  * }}}
+  *
+  * {{{
+  * // Scala 3
+  * abstract class MyMacrosImpl(q: scala.quoted.Quotes)
+  *     extends DerivationEngineImpl(q)
+  *     with StandardRules
+  *     with MyOwnImplicitRuleModule {
+  *
+  *   final override protected val rulesAvailableForPlatform: List[Rule] = List(
+  *     MyOwnImplicitRule,
+  *     TransformSubtypesRule,
+  *     TransformToSingletonRule,
+  *     TransformOptionToOptionRule,
+  *     TransformPartialOptionToNonOptionRule,
+  *     TransformToOptionRule,
+  *     TransformValueClassToValueClassRule,
+  *     TransformValueClassToTypeRule,
+  *     TransformTypeToValueClassRule,
+  *     TransformEitherToEitherRule,
+  *     TransformMapToMapRule,
+  *     TransformIterableToIterableRule,
+  *     TransformProductToProductRule,
+  *     TransformSealedHierarchyToSealedHierarchyRule
+  *   )
+  * }}}
+  *
+  * (You can provide platform-specific implementations of your types/utilities the same way).
+  *
+  * 3. Use `deriveFinalTransformationResultExpr` in your macros:
+  *
+  * {{{
+  * // Scala 2
+  * import c.universe._
+  *
+  * def deriveMyTypeClass[
+  *     From: c.WeakTypeTag,
+  *     To: c.WeakTypeTag
+  * ]: c.Expr[MyTypeClass[From, To]] = {
+  *
+  *   def deriveBody(src: c.Expr[From]): c.Expr[To] = {
+  *     val cfg = TransformerConfiguration() // customize, read config with DSL etc
+  *     val context = TransformationContext.ForTotal.create(src, cfg)
+  *
+  *     deriveFinalTransformationResultExpr(context).toEither.fold(
+  *       derivationErrors => reportError(derivationErrors.toString), // customize
+  *       identity
+  *     )
+  *   }
+  *
+  *   val inputName = freshTermName(...)
+  *   c.Expr[MyTypeClass[From, To](
+  *     q"""
+  *     new MyTypeClass[${Type[From]}, ${Type[To]}] {
+  *       def encode($inputName: ${Type[From]}): ${Type[To]} = ${deriveBody(c.Expr[From](q"$inputName"))}
+  *     }
+  *     """
+  *   )
+  * )
+  * }
+  * }}}
+  *
+  * {{{
+  * // Scala 3
+  * import q.*, q.reflect.*
+  *
+  * def deriveMyTypeClass[
+  *     From: Type,
+  *     To: Type
+  * ]: Expr[MyTypeClass[From, To]] = {
+  *

+  *       derivationErrors => reportError(derivationErrors.toString), // customize
+  *       identity
+  *     )
+  *   }
+  *
