Description

Hi, I came across a problem today when I wanted to use `HiveList` over a lazy box.

I found out on #178 that `HiveList` was not currently supporting lazy boxes, but I would like to understand why and maybe add support for them ?

Lazy boxes are very useful to load a portion of a large amount of data when (and only when) you need it. I have currently a need to store references to some data in a list form.
I understand the possibility to store a `List` instead, but this is not practical and should result into the package implementation details.

I would like Hive to natively support lazy boxes when constructing a `HiveList`.

**Version**
- Platform: iOS, Android, Mac, Windows, Linux, Web
- Flutter version: 2.5.3
- Hive version: 2.0.5
