/**
 * Creates a new object with only the specified properties from the source object.
 *
 * @template T - Type of the source object.
 * @template K - Type of the keys to extract (subset of T's keys).
 * @param {T} object - The source object to extract properties from.
 * @param {...K[]} keys - The property keys to extract.
 * @returns {Pick<T, K>} A new object containing only the specified properties.
 *
 * @remarks
 * **Prototype pollution warning:** This function does not filter out
 * prototype-polluting keys (`__proto__`, `constructor`, `prototype`).
 * If processing user-controlled input, sanitize with the appropriate
 * `removePrototype*` helper before calling this function:
 * - `removePrototype` — shallow sanitization of a single object
 * - `removePrototypeDeep` — recursive sanitization of a single object (for deeply nested data)
 * - `removePrototypeMap` — shallow sanitization of an array of objects
 * - `removePrototypeMapDeep` — recursive sanitization of an array of objects (for deeply nested data)
 *
 * @example
 * ```typescript
 * const user = { id: 1, name: 'Alice', age: 30 };
 * const selected = pick(user, 'id', 'name'); // { id: 1, name: 'Alice' }
 * ```
