+fix: use stable array to prevent memoization issue in useList. #7019
+
+Fixed an issue where `useList`, `useMany`, `useTable`, and `useCustom` hooks created new empty arrays/objects on every render. This caused `useEffect` and `useMemo` to trigger unnecessarily.
+
+Now these hooks use stable references for better performance.
+
+Fixes #7019
