- #41: for the root of a drive, the cmdlets read and changed the security
descriptor of the drive, a device object. FileSystemSecurity2 now routes
drive roots through the path-based AlphaFS methods, which keep the
trailing backslash; the removal and inheritance helpers use it too.
- #109: Add-, Remove-, and Clear-NTFSAudit report a security descriptor
without the audit entries like Get-NTFSAudit, through one helper, and
Get-NTFSEffectiveAccess names the cause that Windows reported instead
of a missing Security privilege.
- #108: Copy-Item2 and Move-Item2 check the destination only for an
operation that runs; with -WhatIf, a verbose message names the conflict.
- #111: Disable-Privileges skips the privileges that the token doesn't
hold, the privilege messages are spelled right, and Get-FileHash2
declares the type name of its objects; 05-Releasing.md documents the
release metadata tests.
- rc3 review leftovers: Remove-NTFSAudit writes nothing for an item
without a SACL, the owner retry of Set-NTFSSecurityDescriptor restores
the previous owner in a finally block and keeps an owner that the
descriptor sets, and FileSystemSecurity2.Write with another item writes
only the sections that were read.
Each fix has a test that failed first, in Windows PowerShell 5.1 and
PowerShell 7; writing a drive root was checked once on a temporary VHD.

Copy-Item2 and Move-Item2 named the source path as the destination,
Disable-Privileges said that the privileges were now enabled, and the
warning of Get-NTFSEffectiveAccess misspelled the privilege.

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.

Defect 11. DisableFileSystemPrivileges read the privileges of the token
into a local variable that hid the field, and DisablePrivilege read the
field. With the module setting EnablePrivileges = $false, BeginProcessing
never filled the field, so every DisablePrivilege call hit a null
reference, which TryDisablePrivilege turned into a warning, and the
privileges stayed enabled. The method now refreshes the field.
Tests/Privileges.Tests.ps1 (new): 1 test, CI-only, because it needs a
token that holds the privileges. Without the fix it fails on the warnings
and on the Backup privilege that stays enabled.
