//! DMA ping-pong/double-buffer transfer example for MCXA276.
//!
//! NOTE: this is a "raw dma" example! It exists as a proof of concept, as we don't have
//! a high-level and safe API for. It should not be taken as typical, recommended, or
//! stable usage!
//!
//! This example demonstrates two approaches for ping-pong/double-buffering:
//!
//! ## Approach 1: Scatter/Gather with linked TCDs (manual)
//! - Two TCDs link to each other for alternating transfers
//! - Uses custom handler that delegates to on_interrupt() then signals completion
//! - Note: With ESG=1, DONE bit is cleared by hardware when next TCD loads,
//! so we need an AtomicBool to track completion
//!
//! ## Approach 2: Half-transfer interrupt with wait_half() (NEW!)
//! - Single continuous transfer over entire buffer
//! - Uses half-transfer interrupt to know when first half is ready
//! - Application can process first half while second half is being filled
//!
//! # Embassy-style features demonstrated:
//! - `DmaChannel::new()` for channel creation
//! - Scatter/gather with linked TCDs
//! - Custom handler that delegates to HAL's `on_interrupt()` (best practice)
//! - Standard `DmaCh1InterruptHandler` with `bind_interrupts!` macro
//! - NEW: `wait_half()` for half-transfer interrupt handling
