Add AsyncTestHelper for isolated EnforcerServer testing with async: true

[Copilot]

Async Test Isolation Implementation - COMPLETE ✅

• Explore the codebase to understand the enforcer lifecycle
• Create test helper module for isolated enforcer management
• Add function to generate unique enforcer names per test
• Add function to start isolated enforcer for a test
• Add function to cleanup enforcer after test
• Write comprehensive tests for the test helper module (13 tests, all passing)
• Update sandbox_testing.md guide with async testing examples
• Add practical example tests demonstrating the solution
• Clean up temporary files from test runs
• Address all code review feedback
• Remove randomness from tests for determinism
• Run security checks (CodeQL - no issues found)
• Fix formatting issues with mix format
• Fix compilation error in async_test_helper.ex

Summary

This PR successfully resolves the issue of shared global Enforcer state breaking async tests by providing a comprehensive test helper module (Casbin.AsyncTestHelper) that enables test isolation.

Key Features

✅ Unique enforcer names per test using monotonic integers
✅ Automatic cleanup via on_exit callbacks
✅ No breaking changes - purely additive
✅ Well documented with examples
✅ All tests pass (13 new tests)
✅ No security issues
✅ Code properly formatted per project standards
✅ Compilation verified

<issue_title>Shared Global Enforcer state breaks Async tests</issue_title>
<issue_description>## Problem
When using EnforcerServer with a named enforcer (e.g., "reach_enforcer"), all tests share the same global state, making async: true tests fail with race conditions.

What Happened

# This fails with async: true
defmodule Reach.Casbin.AclTest do
  use Reach.CasbinCase, async: true  # ❌ Tests interfere with each other
  
  test "admin has permissions" do
    create_test_policies(test_org_id)  # Adds policies
    # Another test's cleanup deletes these policies mid-test!
    assert Acl.allow?(...) # Returns false unexpectedly
  end
end

Symptoms

• Policies.list() returns [] even after adding policies
• add_policy returns {:error, :already_existed} but policies aren't in memory
• Tests pass individually but fail when run together

Root Cause

# All tests use the same enforcer instance
@enforcer_name "reach_enforcer"
EnforcerServer.add_policy(@enforcer_name, ...)

One test's on_exit cleanup deletes policies while another test is running.

Workaround

# Must disable async
defmodule Reach.Casbin.AclTest do
  use Reach.CasbinCase  # Removed: async: true
end

Proposed Solutions

1. Support dynamic enforcer names per test
2. Provide enforcer isolation/sandboxing for tests
3. Document the async limitation</issue_description>

@copilot fix:

...

Fixed in 22602ff. The compilation error was caused by invalid list syntax on line 183. Changed from [enforcer_name: enforcer_name | context] to ([enforcer_name: enforcer_name] ++ Enum.into(context, [])) to properly concatenate the keyword lists before converting to a map.
