Marc Schier dbc09b8e22 Adopt System.TimeProvider across the stack (fixes #2458) (#3829)
# Description

Adopt
[`System.TimeProvider`](https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/system.timeprovider)
across the stack so that every place that creates timers, runs duration
math, or schedules periodic work is mockable, deterministic in tests,
and immune to wall-clock changes.

The migration touches Core, Core.Types, Server, Client, PubSub,
Configuration, Gds (server + client), Lds, and the Quickstarts/Console
reference apps. Per-component changes follow the same pattern:

1. Add a `private readonly TimeProvider m_timeProvider;` field.
2. Accept a nullable `TimeProvider? timeProvider = null` as the **last**
constructor parameter (new overload; legacy constructor stays for binary
compatibility and delegates with `timeProvider: null`).
3. Initialise the field with `m_timeProvider = timeProvider ??=
TimeProvider.System;`.
4. Replace `new Timer(...)`, `Stopwatch`, `HiResClock.*`,
`DateTime.UtcNow`-based duration math, and `Task.Delay(delay, ct)` in
timing loops with the matching `m_timeProvider` API (`CreateTimer`,
`GetTimestamp` / `GetElapsedTime`, `GetUtcNow().UtcDateTime`,
`Task.Delay(delay, m_timeProvider, ct)`).
5. Wire the provider through DI: `AddOpcUaServerBuilder` /
`AddOpcUaClientBuilder` register `TimeProvider.System` via
`TryAddSingleton<TimeProvider>()` so tests can swap in
`Microsoft.Extensions.Time.Testing.FakeTimeProvider`.

`HiResClock` itself is kept (so the
`ApplicationConfiguration.DisableHiResClock` schema flag still
round-trips), but **every public member** is now `[Obsolete]` with a
single shared message pointing to the new migration-guide section. The
few internal call sites that still need to set/read `HiResClock` are
wrapped with `#pragma warning disable CS0618`.

### Highlights per component

- **Core / Stack** — `Opc.Ua.Core`, `Opc.Ua.Core.Types`, channel
pipeline (`UaSCBinaryClientChannel`, `ChannelToken`,
`UaSCBinaryChannel`), `ApplicationConfiguration`, certificate
validators, `JwksIssuerKeyResolver`, `TimeProviderExtensions` polyfills
(`GetTimestampMilliseconds`, `GetTickCount`,
`CancellationTokenSource(timeout, timeProvider)`, `Task.Delay(delay,
provider, ct)` polyfill for older TFMs).
- **Server** — session lockout, subscription pipeline
(publish/sample/keep-alive/lifetime), `MonitoredItemQueue`, alarm
sampling rate, `IntervalRunner`, server diagnostics, configuration state
machines, hosted services.
- **Client** — `Session`, managed/V2 subscription engines, reconnect
handlers, channel keep-alive, periodic publishing, complex-type
discovery polling.
- **PubSub** — `IntervalRunner` pipeline, message-receive timers,
MQTT/UDP keep-alive, publishers/readers.
- **Gds / Lds** — `LdsServer`, `LinqApplicationsDatabase` expiry
housekeeping, GDS clients (push, pull), `DirectoryCertificateStore`,
`ConnectionStateMachine`, classic subscription engine.
- **Quickstarts / Console samples** — `SampleNodeManager`,
`ReferenceNodeManager`, `AlarmNodeManager`, `BoilerState`,
`MemoryBufferState`, `PublishedValuesWrites`. Samples resolve via
`(Server as ITimeProviderProvider)?.TimeProvider ?? TimeProvider.System`
so existing ctor signatures stay binary-compatible.
- **Tests** — `Opc.Ua.PubSub.Tests` adds `IntervalRunnerTests`; existing
`SubscriptionTests`, `UaPublisherTests`, and `TestDataSystem` move off
`HiResClock`. Added `Microsoft.Extensions.TimeProvider.Testing` package
for `FakeTimeProvider` (project-load warning surfaces on net48/net472
only — runtime is .NET 8+).

### Migration guide

New section [**Time and Timer abstraction
(`TimeProvider`)**](Docs/MigrationGuide.md#time-and-timer-abstraction-timeprovider)
documents:

- The canonical replacement table (`HiResClock.UtcNow` →
`timeProvider.GetUtcNow().UtcDateTime`, `HiResClock.TickCount64` →
`timeProvider.GetTimestamp()`, `new Timer` → `timeProvider.CreateTimer`,
`Task.Delay(delay, ct)` → `Task.Delay(delay, timeProvider, ct)`, …).
- The `TimeProvider? timeProvider = null` + `??=` constructor pattern.
- DI wiring and how to swap in `FakeTimeProvider` in tests.
- Before/after snippets for `HiResClock.TickCount64`,
`HiResClock.UtcNow`, and `new Timer(...)`.
