Description

I have box of items:
```
itemsBox = await Hive.openBox('itemsBox');
```

In widget with list of items I can listen for changes:
```
ValueListenableBuilder(
valueListenable: myRepo.itemsBox!.listenable(),
builder: (BuildContext context, Box itemsBox, Widget? child) {
print("List of all items...");
}
)
```

Also I have screen (page) with Item details. How can I listen for changes for specific item on Item details screen (page)?
I don't want to rebuild the screen when changing in another item.

Research direction

Start with the Box.listenable() entry point and the ValueListenableBuilder example in the issue. Determine whether Hive supports notifications scoped to one item, then document the supported approach and its rebuild behavior; the issue names no file or test to update.
