/**
 * Decorator that marks a property as the compliance subject - the natural person whose Personal
 * Identifiable Information (PII) a read model or event carries. The subject selects which
 * encryption key protects that PII, and which key a manual release operation must use.
 *
 * Mirrors the .NET client's `SubjectAttribute`. When no property is decorated, resolvers fall
 * back to the `id` property by convention for read models, or to the event source identifier
 * for event appends. An explicit append subject option overrides the event annotation.
 *
 * @returns A property decorator.
 *
 * @example
 * ```typescript
 * @fromEvent(EmployeeHired)
 * class Employee {
 *     @subject()
 *     personId: string = '';
 *
 *     @pii('Employee social security number')
 *     ssn: string = '';
 * }
 * ```
