✅ _enter_ and _exit_ dunder methods
✅ Class-based context managers
✅ @contextmanager decorator (the cleanest way)
✅ Exception handling & suppression in _exit_
✅ Multiple and nested with statements
✅ contextlib tools: suppress, redirect_stdout, ExitStack
✅ Real production patterns (Timer, state restore, locks)
