// TailRec implements tail-recursive computation for ReaderResult with context cancellation support.
//
// TailRec takes a Kleisli function that returns Either[A, B] and converts it into a stack-safe,
// tail-recursive computation. The function repeatedly applies the Kleisli until it produces a Right value.
//
// The implementation includes a short-circuit mechanism that checks for context cancellation on each
// iteration. If the context is canceled (ctx.Err() != nil), the computation immediately returns a
// Left result containing the context's cause error, preventing unnecessary computation.
//
// Type Parameters:
// - A: The input type for the recursive step
// - B: The final result type
//
// Parameters:
// - f: A Kleisli function that takes an A and returns a ReaderResult containing Either[A, B].
// When the result is Left[B](a), recursion continues with the new value 'a'.
// When the result is Right[A](b), recursion terminates with the final value 'b'.
//
// Returns:
// - A Kleisli function that performs the tail-recursive computation in a stack-safe manner.
//
// Behavior:
// - On each iteration, checks if the context has been canceled (short circuit)
// - If canceled, returns result.Left[B](context.Cause(ctx))
// - If the step returns Left[B](error), propagates the error
// - If the step returns Right[A](Left[B](a)), continues recursion with new value 'a'
// - If the step returns Right[A](Right[A](b)), terminates with success value 'b'
//
// Example - Factorial computation with context:
//
// type State struct {
// n int
// acc int
// }
//
// factorialStep := func(state State) ReaderResult[either.Either[State, int]] {
// return func(ctx context.Context) result.Result[either.Either[State, int]] {
// if state.n <= 0 {
// return result.Of(either.Right[State](state.acc))
// }
// return result.Of(either.Left[int](State{state.n - 1, state.acc * state.n}))
// }
// }
//
// factorial := TailRec(factorialStep)
// result := factorial(State{5, 1})(ctx) // Returns result.Of(120)
//
// Example - Context cancellation:
//
// ctx, cancel := context.WithCancel(context.Background())
// cancel() // Cancel immediately
//
// computation := TailRec(someStep)
// result := computation(initialValue)(ctx)
// // Returns result.Left[B](context.Cause(ctx)) without executing any steps
//
