/**
 * @file API/Depot.hpp
 * @brief Audio file loading and container management API
 *
 * This header provides the public API for working with IOManager,
 * container creation, and file type checking within the MayaFlux engine.
 * It includes:
 * - `create_container<ContainerType>(args...)`: Template function to create signal source containers.
 * - `is_audio(filepath)`: Check if a file is an audio file based on its extension.
 * - `is_image(filepath)`: Check if a file is an image file based on its extension.
 * - `get_io_manager()`: Access the global IOManager instance for file loading and buffer management.
