Pass target inputs positionally and normalize every retained
`functools.partial()` layer, including Python 3.14 Placeholder
binding. Validate the complete target signature before startup.
Route each ordinary async fn through a static `@context` endpoint
so remote results, errors and caller cancellation remain linked.
Send namespace and function components separately, then resolve
through `Actor._get_rpc_func()` so the RPC module allowlist remains
authoritative. Retain client-created `NamespacePath` refs so
`to_tuple()` does not re-import their callable.
Owned actors enable the endpoint's `__name__` directly. Keep
`to_actor.MODULE` as the importer-facing alias used by caller-owned
portals while retaining the target module's authorization boundary.
Cover all placement modes, nested partials, argument collisions,
linked cancellation, remote errors and authorization failures.

Demo both flavors of the new API in a runnable script
(auto-collected by `test_docs_examples.py`),
- the fully-implicit one-shot which boots (and tears down) the
actor-runtime around a single `to_actor.run()` call,
- the concurrent "worker-pool-ish" prime-check pattern: a local
`trio` task nursery scheduling one-shots against a shared
caller-managed `an`, mirroring (in miniature) the neighboring
`concurrent_actors_primes.py` example per issue #477.
