+/**
+ * Makes Shift+F6 work when the caret sits on a PHP identifier inside a Qiq
+ * injection host such as `{{h $article->title }}` or `<?php ... ?>`.
+ *
+ * The platform's default PsiElementRenameHandler reads
+ * CommonDataKeys.PSI_ELEMENT from the data context, which is set to the
+ * outer Qiq host (an unnamed wrapper) — that satisfies neither
+ * PsiNamedElement nor the renameability checks, so the action stays
+ * disabled for property references. Local variable rename happens to work
+ * via the default handler because variables expose themselves as
+ * PsiNamedElement reachable through other data keys, but property /
+ * method accesses do not.
+ *
+ * This handler descends into the injected fragment via
+ * InjectedLanguageManager, then walks parents and asks PHP's own
+ * references to resolve themselves. The first reference whose resolution
+ * is a PsiNameIdentifierOwner becomes the rename target. PHP's type
+ * inference already has the injected context wired by our
+ * MultiHostInjector, so resolution covers variables, properties, methods
+ * and class references uniformly.
+ *
+ * Scope: the handler only fires when the top-level (host) file's language
+ * is Qiq, so it does not compete with PHP's own handlers in plain `.php`
+ * files. The platform pre-narrows PSI_FILE in the data context to the
+ * most specific file at the caret (sometimes the injected PHP file,
+ * sometimes the outer Qiq file); the host check normalizes both cases.
