This push consolidates a batch of dependency and CI updates, including Azure SDK packages, Ardalis libraries, and newer GitHub Actions versions. The only substantive code change was in src/Web/Program.cs, where deprecated Azure App Configuration caching APIs were replaced with the current refresh interval calls so the app continues to compile and behave correctly after the upgrade. With all 10 projects validating cleanly, the practical effect is a more secure and up-to-date codebase without breaking the build.
