COUNTER type:
- Only accepts integer values (rejects decimals)
- Auto-increment behavior: each mark adds to existing value
- Supports decrement via negative values (e.g., -2)
- Enforces minimum value of 0 (never negative)
- Default increment is 1 if no value provided
VALUE type:
- Accepts decimal values
- Replaces value (no auto-increment)
IsNegative field:
- New boolean field on Habit entity
- Persisted in database (is_negative column)
- Available in all DTOs and HTTP responses
- Marks habits as "negative" (e.g., candy consumption)
Examples:
- COUNTER: 5 + (-2) = 3, 2 + (-3) = 0, 0 + (-1) = 0
- VALUE: 5000 → 12000 = 12000 (replacement)
