Subject: [PATCH] perf: Memoize `validate_folder_url` to skip redundant DNS
 lookups

`validate_folder_url` performs a DNS lookup (`socket.getaddrinfo`) to check for private IPs. This function is called twice for every URL: once during cache warm-up and once during the main sync loop.

This change adds `functools.lru_cache` to the function, eliminating the second DNS lookup. This saves approximately ~100ms per run (depending on DNS latency) and reduces network noise.

- Uses `maxsize=128` to prevent memory leaks.
- Verified with benchmark script (0.047s -> 0.000s for second call).
- Existing tests pass.
