jedarden 5881befa50 docs(pdftract-4ij2): add verification note for cycle detection + LRU cache
Implementation already complete. All 9 integration tests pass:
- Self-cycle detection returns PdfNull + STRUCT_CIRCULAR_REF
- 3-cycle (A->B->C->A) detection
- Legitimate objects cache after cycle
- 90%+ cache hit ratio
- LRU eviction at 4097 entries
- Random sequences terminate

Closes pdftract-4ij2.

# pdftract-4ij2: Per-thread cycle detection + LRU object cache
## Summary
This bead's implementation was **already complete** in the codebase. The per-thread cycle detection and LRU object cache features have been fully implemented with comprehensive tests.
## Implementation Verification
### Files Modified (already exist)
| File | Purpose |
|------|---------|
| `crates/pdftract-core/src/parser/object/cycle.rs` | Per-thread cycle detection with `thread_local! RefCell<HashSet<ObjRef>>` |
| `crates/pdftract-core/src/parser/object/cache.rs` | LRU cache with `Mutex<LruCache<ObjRef, Arc<PdfObject>>>`, 4096 capacity |
| `crates/pdftract-core/src/parser/object/types.rs` | ObjRef, PdfObject types |
| `crates/pdftract-core/tests/test_cycle_detection.rs` | Integration tests |
### Acceptance Criteria Status
| Criterion | Status | Test |
|----------|--------|------|
| Self-cycle returns PdfNull + STRUCT_CIRCULAR_REF, no stack overflow | ✅ PASS | `test_self_cycle_returns_null_with_diagnostic` |
| 3-cycle (A->B->C->A) detection | ✅ PASS | `test_three_cycle_abc_detected` |
| Legitimate objects cached after cycle detection | ✅ PASS | `test_legitimate_object_after_cycle` |
| Cache hit ratio >= 90% (1000 accesses of 100 objects) | ✅ PASS | `test_cache_hit_ratio_90_percent` |
| LRU eviction at 4097 entries (4096 capacity) | ✅ PASS | `test_lru_eviction_4097_entries` |
| Random resolution sequences terminate | ✅ PASS | `test_random_resolution_sequences_terminate` |
### Implementation Details Verified
#### Per-thread Cycle Detection (`cycle.rs`)
-`thread_local! { static RESOLVING: RefCell<HashSet<ObjRef>> ... }`
-`ResolutionGuard` RAII guard for automatic cleanup
-`is_resolving(obj_ref)` function for cycle checking
- ✅ Thread-local isolation for rayon parallelism
#### LRU Object Cache (`cache.rs`)
-`lru = "0.12"` crate in `Cargo.toml`
-`Mutex<LruCache<ObjRef, Arc<PdfObject>>>` with 4096 capacity
-`CacheStats { hits: u64, misses: u64 }` tracking
-`MAX_RESOLUTION_DEPTH: u16 = 256` depth limiting
- ✅ Thread-local depth counter with `RESOLUTION_DEPTH`
- ✅ PdfNull NOT cached (prevents poisoning)
-`CacheResolutionGuard` combining cycle + depth tracking
### Test Results
```bash
$ cargo test --package pdftract-core --test test_cycle_detection
running 9 tests
test test_self_cycle_returns_null_with_diagnostic ... ok
test test_three_cycle_abc_detected ... ok
test test_legitimate_object_after_cycle ... ok
test test_cache_hit_ratio_90_percent ... ok
test test_lru_eviction_4097_entries ... ok
test test_resolution_depth_limit_256 ... ok
test test_thread_local_cycle_detection ... ok
test test_null_not_cached ... ok
test test_random_resolution_sequences_terminate ... ok
test result: ok. 9 passed; 0 failed; 0 ignored
```
### Unit Tests (cache.rs)
All 21 unit tests in `cache.rs` pass:
- Cache hit/miss tracking
- Hit ratio calculation
- Null not cached
- LRU eviction
- Cycle detection
- Depth limit enforcement
- Thread-local independence
- Guard cleanup on panic
- peek_lru/is_lru helpers
### Diagnostic Codes Verified
| Code | Emitted When | Message Includes |
|------|--------------|------------------|
| `STRUCT_CIRCULAR_REF` | Cycle detected | ObjRef in msg |
| `STRUCT_DEPTH_EXCEEDED` | Depth > 256 | Limit value in msg |
## Conclusion
**The implementation is complete and all acceptance criteria PASS.** No code changes were required for this bead—the feature was already implemented.
