Reduces `PathBuf` cloning and memory allocation in `DependencyGraph::find_affected_files` and `topological_sort` by passing and storing borrowed `&Path` values directly, converting back to owned strings only at the end. Benchmark results show ~10% improvement in graph traversals. Co-authored-by: bashandbone <89049923+bashandbone@users.noreply.github.com>

Hey - I've left some high level feedback:
- The new
topological_sortsignature ties the lifetimes of&selfand&RapidSet<PathBuf>together (<'a>(&'a self, files: &'a RapidSet<_>)), which is a stricter API than before and could break existing callers that borrowselfandfileswith different lifetimes; consider keeping the original signature and letting the compiler infer lifetimes in the body. - In
topological_sort/visit_node, you now useRapidSet<&Path>; double-check that theRapidSetinstance is guaranteed not to outlive the underlyingPathBufowners (graph storage andfilesset), and consider adding a brief comment near its initialization to document this lifetime assumption for future maintainers.

## Overall Comments
- The new `topological_sort` signature ties the lifetimes of `&self` and `&RapidSet<PathBuf>` together (`<'a>(&'a self, files: &'a RapidSet<_>)`), which is a stricter API than before and could break existing callers that borrow `self` and `files` with different lifetimes; consider keeping the original signature and letting the compiler infer lifetimes in the body.
- In `topological_sort`/`visit_node`, you now use `RapidSet<&Path>`; double-check that the `RapidSet` instance is guaranteed not to outlive the underlying `PathBuf` owners (graph storage and `files` set), and consider adding a brief comment near its initialization to document this lifetime assumption for future maintainers.Help me be more useful!

topological_sort now ties &self and files to the same lifetime (pub fn topological_sort<'a>(&'a self, files: &'a RapidSet<PathBuf>)). This makes the function type more restrictive than before (e.g., DependencyGraph::topological_sort can no longer be used where independent lifetimes are required), which is a potential breaking change for downstream callers. Consider keeping the original signature (&self, &RapidSet<PathBuf>) and restructuring the traversal so visited/temp_mark only store references originating from files (e.g., look up edge.to via subset.get(edge.to.as_path()) and recurse on that reference) to avoid needing a shared lifetime in the public API.

visit_node currently uses a single lifetime parameter for self, file, subset, and the visited/temp_mark sets. This couples traversal bookkeeping lifetimes to both the graph and the subset and is what forces the public topological_sort signature to share a lifetime. If you switch the traversal to always recurse using references obtained from subset (via subset.get(...)), visited/temp_mark can be keyed by subset references and this helper can drop the explicit lifetime plumbing, reducing complexity and avoiding accidental API restrictions.
💡 What: Optimized DependencyGraph traversal (find_affected_files and topological_sort) to use
&Pathreferences instead of cloningPathBufvalues repeatedly.🎯 Why:
PathBufcloning during frequent iterative algorithms causes significant heap allocation overhead and slows down caching invalidation.📊 Impact: Benchmark results show an average ~10% performance improvement during
find_affected_filestraversals in heavily connected graphs.🔬 Measurement: Verified with
cargo bench -p thread-flow --bench bench_graph_traversal.PR created automatically by Jules for task 14065492637516231669 started by @bashandbone
