PR Summary
This pull request strengthens the security enforcement for property setting via the
ForEachengine intrinsic method in Constrained Language mode and adds corresponding tests to verify the behavior. The main change is to prevent property assignment on non-core types when PowerShell is running in Constrained Language mode, except when the system is only auditing (not enforcing) the policy.PR Context
