ChangesGUID cache retry handling
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The PR makes GUID caching shared and thread-safe, but the shared mappings remain unscoped by domain; if schema GUIDs collide, ACL processing can emit incorrect LAPS edges. This is a concrete correctness risk that should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merge. Poem

- Around line 57-74: Scope ACLProcessorContext GUID mappings by both domain and
GUID instead of GUID alone, so later domains can use their own schema mapping.
Update AddGuid and TryGetGuid and all callers, including the LAPS processing
path near ReadLAPSPassword, to accept and pass domain; preserve the existing
build-task domain scoping. Add a regression test covering two domains that reuse
one GUID with different schema attributes and verify each domain emits its own
mapping.

I used this pattern once with adaptive timeout stuff. Interlocked basically acts as a super slim lock.

Volatile.Read is technically more thread-safe than a direct read. Unlikely to be necessary, but better safe than sorry.

55-55: 🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick winThe Exchange trustee SID cache is per processor, so it is not shared by the context.
_exchangeTrusteeSidCacheis an instance field.ACLProcessorContextshares onlyGuidCache. Each processor created by the context resolves the four Exchange trustee names again for every domain, which adds up to fourResolveAccountNameLDAP lookups per processor per domain.Move this cache into the shared state, in the same way as
GuidCache, so the resolution happens once per domain per context.Also applies to: 1125-1144

question: as I understand it, in the intention of this change, if a task fails on the query, we have no way to attempt it again. Is that correct? If that is would not the failed be locked in as the only response that is cached? I understand we may be doing it too much, but should we have some sort of retry logic or another attempt occasionally when a failure is cached? |

Description
ACLProcessor instances are spawned for many workers on a thread, and each of those workers had been building their own instanced guid cache. The change to instanced caches had been done before to resolve test isolation issues: #169
