// TestResolveMatrixRefsDoesNotMutateInput is a regression test for #2890. The
// *ast.Matrix passed to resolveMatrixRefs is part of the shared, cached Task
// AST: the same *ast.Matrix is reused on every invocation of a task. If
// resolveMatrixRefs resolved `ref:` rows in place, concurrent invocations of
// the same task (e.g. via parallel deps) would race on that mutation and leak
// a value resolved for one caller into another caller's expansion.
//
// The invariant that prevents this is that resolveMatrixRefs must resolve into
// a copy and leave its input untouched, which this test asserts deterministically.

// assert []any, so those references failed with "must resolve to a list" even
// though the value was a list. The accepted types mirror the ones
// itemsFromFor supports for `for: var:`.
