Sam Morrow a429a8759f fix(lockdown): bound repo-access cache expiry and isolate it per identity
The repo-access cache used by lockdown mode relied on cache2go's sliding
expiry: every read extends an entry's life, so a frequently-accessed
entry could keep a stale trust decision (e.g. revoked push access)
alive indefinitely instead of refreshing after its TTL.

Separately, cache2go.Cache(name) returns a process-wide singleton table
keyed by name. In HTTP mode, RequestDeps.GetRepoAccessCache built a new
RepoAccessCache per request but always reused the same default-named
table, so trust decisions computed under one caller's credentials could
be served to a different caller for the same owner/repo, without ever
validating the second caller's own access.

Fixes:
- Track each cache entry's original creation time and bound its maximum
  age from that fixed point, not from last access, so entries are
  refreshed after a fixed TTL regardless of read frequency.
- Add lockdown.CacheNameForIdentity, which derives a stable, hashed
  cache-table name from a request identity (e.g. auth token). Two calls
  for the same identity return the same name (reusing a warm cache
  across a session's repeated requests); different identities always
  get different names (no shared cache state).
- RequestDeps.GetRepoAccessCache now scopes each request's cache to the
  requesting token's identity via CacheNameForIdentity, closing the
  cross-identity leak in HTTP/multi-tenant deployments. Stdio mode is
  unaffected: it constructs a single RepoAccessCache for the whole
  process lifetime, as before.

Tests added:
- TestRepoAccessCacheBoundedExpiryIgnoresRepeatedAccess and
  TestRepoAccessCacheNewUserDoesNotResetEntryAge exercise bounded expiry
  deterministically via an injectable clock (no sleeps).
- TestCacheNameForIdentity and
  TestRepoAccessCacheIdentityScopedNamesPreventCrossIdentityLeakage
  cover the naming helper and cross-identity isolation at the lockdown
  package level.
- TestGetRepoAccessCacheIsolatesTrustDecisionsPerIdentity in
  pkg/github mirrors the HTTP server's exact construction pattern
  end-to-end and fails without the dependencies.go fix.

Fixes #3107
