Zohar Babin 15152c6ccd feat(auth): cache workspace membership for daemon heartbeat path (MUL-2247) (#2638)
* feat(auth): cache workspace membership for daemon heartbeat path

Cache workspace membership existence (not role) in Redis to eliminate a
DB round-trip on every PAT-authenticated daemon heartbeat. Follows the
existing PATCache nil-safe pattern.

Key design decisions per reviewer feedback:
- Cache existence only (sentinel "1"), not role string. Authorization
  decisions that depend on role always hit the DB directly. This
  eliminates the cache-aside race where a stale elevated role could
  persist after a downgrade.
- Proactive invalidation on UpdateMember, DeleteMember, LeaveWorkspace,
  and DeleteWorkspace (iterates members before cascade delete).
- 5 min TTL. Combined with PATCache (10 min), worst-case revocation
  delay is max(10m, 5m) = 10 min — consistent with original PATCache
  design decision.

Limitations:
- Non-members still hit DB on every request (negative caching not
  implemented — the scenario is rare for daemon endpoints which require
  valid workspace-scoped tokens).

* test(auth): drive membership cache invalidation through real handlers

- TestRequireDaemonWorkspaceAccess_CacheHit now uses a ghost user with no
  member row, so the only path to a granted access is the cache short-circuit.
  Without priming the cache the access check must fail; with priming it must
  succeed. A future change that bypasses the cache would fail the second
  assertion.
- Replaces the cache-only InvalidatedOnMemberRemoval test (which only
  re-exercised the auth-package primitive) with four handler-driven tests
  that exercise DeleteMember, UpdateMember, LeaveWorkspace and
  DeleteWorkspace via their real HTTP handlers. Each test prepares a real
  member, primes the cache, calls the handler, and asserts the cache entry
  is gone — so a refactor that drops one of the Invalidate(...) calls in
  workspace.go will fail CI.
