An empty Get-ChildItem2 -Attributes value, such as 0 or None in
PowerShell 7, matched every item and returned hidden items as well; it now
stops the cmdlet with AttributesEmpty, as Get-ChildItem rejects it. The page
says that the + and ! operators of Get-ChildItem aren't supported and that
-Recurse still enters hidden folders, and the changelog says that a call
with several attributes now returns more items. The type data test starts
Windows PowerShell, where the import failed, from both CI legs and checks
that LengthOnDisk is still there.

Get-ChildItem2 -Attributes returned only the items that had all the listed
attributes, so -Attributes Hidden, ReadOnly returned nothing where
Get-ChildItem returns both kinds of items. It now returns the items that have
any of them (#5).
BREAKING CHANGE: to get only the items with all the listed attributes,
filter the result with Where-Object, as the cmdlet page shows.

Security review of this branch, Major findings:
- M4: Get-NTFSAudit took ownership of an item whose SACL it couldn't
read. Ownership grants no access to the SACL, so the retry always
failed, and it left the owner changed. The cmdlet now writes a
ReadSecurityError with the category PermissionDenied, as Get-NTFSOwner
does since defect 9; the page says so.
- M1: Remove-TestSandbox reset the ACLs recursively before it removed the
links. Measured: icacls /reset /T did not follow the junction (the
target's explicit entry stayed), but the links now go first anyway; a
folder that denies listing gets a reset without /T. New test: the ACL
of a junction target stays unchanged.
- m4: Assert-TestSandboxPath now rejects a path below a link, which can
point outside the sandbox (new test, failed before).
- M5: the Inherits column reads one ACL per displayed item; the
Get-ChildItem2 page names the cost and how to avoid it.
- M2: the comment of the CI-only Get-NTFSAudit repeat test states what it
guards; Access.Tests.ps1 guards the same loop fix without elevation.
- M3, the stale hash of Get-FileHash2, is fixed on ai/defects-c.

Defect 13. The Inherits column of the Children2 view, which formats the
Get-ChildItem2 output, negated the IsInheritanceBlocked property. The
module defines that property for System.IO.FileInfo and DirectoryInfo
only, not for the AlphaFS objects that Get-ChildItem2 returns, so the
column showed !$null, that is True, for every item. The view now reads
the protection of the DACL from the item.
Tests/ItemCmdlets.Tests.ps1: 2 tests on the formatted output.

Defect 2. Get-ChildItem2 cast every -Path item to DirectoryInfo, so a file
path stopped the cmdlet with an InvalidCastException, a terminating error
that also skipped the remaining paths. Like Get-ChildItem, a file path now
returns the file itself, filtered like the other items; with -Directory it
returns nothing.
Tests/ItemCmdlets.Tests.ps1 (new): 3 tests.

* 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
