The cmdlets that take ownership of an item to repeat a denied operation
left the account that ran them as the owner when the second attempt failed
as well. BaseCmdlet.InvokeAsOwner now restores the previous owner on every
exit path and reports a failed restore as RestoreOwnerError.
Add-NTFSAccess, Add-NTFSAudit, Remove-NTFSAccess, and Remove-NTFSAudit
wrote the unchanged entries of an item with -PassThru after a failed
change; they now continue with the next path.
The inheritance tests assert the error identity and cover a missing path
on every runner.

Defect 14. Add-NTFSAccess, Remove-NTFSAccess, Add-NTFSAudit, and
Remove-NTFSAudit have the sets PathSimple, PathComplex, SDSimple, and
SDComplex; the default PathComplex needs -Path. A command with
-SecurityDescriptor and without -AppliesTo, -InheritanceFlags, or
-PropagationFlags matched both SD sets and failed with "Parameter set
cannot be resolved". -AppliesTo is now mandatory in the Simple sets, so
such a command resolves to the Complex set and its default flags
(ContainerInherit, ObjectInherit / None, which is what AppliesTo
ThisFolderSubfoldersAndFiles means), as a command with -Path already did.
With -AppliesTo nothing changes.
The pages say "Required: True" for -AppliesTo and drop its never
reachable defaults; platyPS takes that metadata from the shipped help
file, so the help file was regenerated before the build.
Tests/Access.Tests.ps1: 6 tests on in-memory security descriptors.

Defect 12. Besides the base class, which enables the privileges only when
the module setting EnablePrivileges is $true and disables them again in
EndProcessing, the six inheritance cmdlets called
EnableFileSystemPrivileges in BeginProcessing unconditionally. With
EnablePrivileges = $false they enabled the privileges anyway and, because
EndProcessing disables them only when the setting is $true, left them
enabled. The extra calls are gone; the inheritance cmdlets now behave like
the other cmdlets.
Tests/Privileges.Tests.ps1: 6 tests, one per cmdlet, CI-only, because
they need a token that holds the privileges. Without the fix the Backup
privilege is enabled after each call.

* chore: initialize the memory bank
Add the canonical .memory-bank base with evidence-based project context:
purpose and scope, workflows, stack and validation commands, architecture
map, decisions, and the open work found while documenting the cmdlets.

* docs: align documentation with the cmdlet source
- Fill all 36 platyPS cmdlet pages from the C# source: synopsis,
description, parameters, defaults, examples, inputs, outputs, and
notes, including documented limitations of the current code
- Check every example against live parameter metadata and run them in a
sandbox; fix examples that did not work (CSV restore, account filter,
recursive inheritance, -AccessRights typos)
- Rewrite the home, concepts, examples, README, and contributor pages;
add a grouped cmdlet overview, module settings, privileges, long paths,
and the platyPS workflow
- Document Remove-Item2 -PassThru as renamed after 4.2.6 (#64)
- Fix mkdocs.yml navigation, edit_uri, and copyright markup; add
build.os and a pinned MkDocs version for Read the Docs
- Point online help links to the pages on GitHub; add CHANGELOG.md

* ci: build the module and check the docs against the build
The documentation check ran Update-MarkdownHelp against the NTFSSecurity
release from the PowerShell Gallery (4.2.6), so it failed for every
unreleased parameter change. PR #91 failed because 4.2.6 still has
Remove-Item2 -PassThur while the source and the docs have -PassThru.
- Build NTFSSecurity.csproj in Release on the Visual Studio 2022 image,
using the .NET Framework 4.5.2 reference assemblies package instead of
an installed targeting pack
- Check Docs/Cmdlets against the module built from source
- Pin platyPS 0.14.2 and MarkdownLinkCheck 0.2.0, and enable TLS 1.2 so
the NuGet provider bootstrap works
