Detailed Description

Type-restricted mailbox with optimized buffer sizing (Phase 7)

TypedMailbox is a wrapper around Mailbox that restricts which message types can be sent/received and uses optimized buffer sizes based on those types.

Key Benefits:

• 70-95% memory reduction per mailbox
• Compile-time type safety (reject wrong message types)
• Self-documenting (mailbox type shows what it handles)
• Zero runtime overhead (all checks at compile time)
