Summary

LibFlow.flowERC20 NatSpec only mentioned safeTransferFrom. The implementation also calls safeTransfer when from == address(this) (OZ transferFrom consumes allowance even when from == msg.sender, so the self-flow branch must use safeTransfer instead). NatSpec now states both branches and the reason for the asymmetry.

Closes #379.

also calls `safeTransfer` when `from == address(this)` (OZ
`transferFrom` consumes allowance even when `from == msg.sender`).

Walkthrough

Updated NatSpec documentation for flowERC20 in LibFlow.sol to explicitly describe both ERC20 transfer code paths: IERC20.safeTransferFrom when from == msg.sender and IERC20.safeTransfer when from == address(this), clarifying allowance and revert handling. No logic changes.

Layer / File(s) Summary
flowERC20 NatSpec clarification
src/lib/LibFlow.sol
The flowERC20 function NatSpec comments are expanded to document both ERC20 transfer branches: IERC20.safeTransferFrom(from, to, amount) when the source is msg.sender (avoiding allowance overhead for self-initiated transfers) and IERC20.safeTransfer(to, amount) when the source is address(this) (contract-held tokens), with explicit notation that both branches surface token reverts.

Rebase PR #468 onto current main to re-trigger CI (prior red was a stale
magic-nix-cache run). Merge is a clean union: PR touches only
src/lib/LibFlow.sol NatSpec; main adds disjoint tests. forge fmt + build
clean; Flow.transfer.t.sol (21 tests) passes.
