didericis fc86b0309f refactor(orchestrator): drop the PolicyResolver cache (#352)
Review: the resolver is called rarely enough that a round-trip doesn't
matter, and correctness beats speed — always fetching means a revocation,
policy change, or teardown the orchestrator knows about is honored
immediately instead of lingering for a cache TTL. Remove the TTL cache
(and `invalidate`); `resolve` now hits the orchestrator every call. Noted
in the docstring that any future caching should use orchestrator-driven
invalidation, not a blind TTL.

"""Sidecar-side per-client policy resolver (PRD 0070).
The consolidated sidecar serves every bottle from one process, so for each
request it must apply the *calling* bottle's policy, selected by the source
IP the attribution invariant makes unspoofable. This resolves that policy
from the orchestrator's control plane (`POST /resolve`), keyed on the
`(source_ip, identity_token)` pair.
**Always fresh — no cache.** The resolver is called rarely enough that a
round-trip doesn't matter, and correctness matters more than speed: every
resolve reflects the orchestrator's *current* view, so a revocation, a
policy change, or a bottle teardown the orchestrator knows about is honored
immediately rather than lingering for a cache TTL. (If this ever becomes a
hot path, add caching with orchestrator-driven invalidation — not a blind
TTL.)
**Fail-closed:** an unattributed client (the orchestrator answers `403`)
resolves to `None`, and the caller (the egress addon, git-gate) must then
deny — exactly as an unknown bottle should be treated. Orchestrator
*errors* (unreachable / unexpected status) raise, so the caller can fail
closed too rather than silently serving stale or empty policy.
The resolved value is the policy blob the orchestrator stores verbatim; the
consumer parses it (e.g. the egress addon's `load_config`). This module is
stdlib-only and free of bot-bottle imports so it can be COPYed flat into
the sidecar bundle.
