+Fix: Notify framework when count changes to update getTotalSize()
+
+Fixed an issue where `getTotalSize()` would return stale values when the `count` option changed (e.g., during filtering or search operations). The virtualizer now automatically notifies the framework when measurement-affecting options change, ensuring the UI updates correctly without requiring manual `useMemo` workarounds.
+
+**Before**: When filtering items, the list container would maintain its previous height, causing excessive blank space (when count decreased) or inaccessible items (when count increased).
+
+**After**: Height updates automatically when count changes, providing the correct user experience.
+
+This fix applies to all framework adapters and has minimal performance impact (< 0.1ms per change).
