Replace Map-based caches with Cache interface throughout Maven

This change brings the implementation closer to the original PR #2506 by:

1. **Removed CacheMapAdapter**: Eliminated the adapter layer that was converting
   between Map and Cache interfaces, simplifying the architecture.

2. **Updated DefaultRequestCache**: Changed from using Map<Object, CachingSupplier<?, ?>>
   to Cache<Object, CachingSupplier<?, ?>> directly, removing the need for adapters.

3. **Updated AbstractSession**: Replaced all Map-based caches with Cache interface:
   - services: Map<Class<? extends Service>, Service> → Cache<Class<? extends Service>, Service>
   - allNodes: WeakHashMap<DependencyNode, Node> → Cache<DependencyNode, Node>
   - allArtifacts: ConcurrentHashMap<Class, Map<Artifact, Artifact>> → Cache<Class, Cache<Artifact, Artifact>>
   - allRepositories: WeakHashMap<RemoteRepository, RemoteRepository> → Cache<RemoteRepository, RemoteRepository>
   - allDependencies: WeakHashMap<Dependency, Dependency> → Cache<Dependency, Dependency>

**Benefits:**
- **Consistent caching**: All caches now use the same modern Cache implementation
- **Better memory management**: Soft references throughout instead of mixed approaches
- **Thread safety**: All caches benefit from the thread-safe DefaultCache implementation
- **Simplified architecture**: Removed unnecessary adapter layer
- **Closer to original vision**: Uses Cache<K,V> consistently as intended in PR #2506

**Verification:**
- ✅ All 12 cache tests pass
- ✅ Maven-impl module builds successfully
- ✅ Maintains backward compatibility through the Cache interface

This change focuses on the core cache infrastructure in maven-impl. Additional
cache classes in maven-core can be updated in a separate effort.
