Summary

This PR optimizes node add/remove operations in the scheduler cache by eliminating O(n) NodeList scans performed while holding the global scheduler cache mutex.

Previously, AddOrUpdateNode() performed a linear scan over NodeList to determine whether a node already existed before appending it. Similarly, RemoveNode() scanned the slice to locate the node before removing it, resulting in O(n) lookup and additional O(n) slice copying.

To improve scalability, this PR introduces a nodeListIndex (map[string]int) that is maintained alongside NodeList. The index provides O(1) membership checks and enables efficient node removal using swap-delete while keeping the index synchronized.

AddOrUpdateNode() now uses the index map to determine whether a node already exists before appending it. RemoveNode() performs O(1) lookup through the index map, replaces the removed entry with the last element in the slice, updates the swapped node's index, and truncates the slice.

To preserve compatibility with existing tests that construct SchedulerCache directly, the index is lazily initialized from an existing NodeList when necessary.

No behavioral changes are intended. The scheduler cache continues to expose the same functionality, and NodeList ordering remains effectively unchanged from the scheduler's perspective since ordering is not relied upon by snapshot generation.

Test Plan

Added and updated unit tests covering:

• Duplicate node additions do not create multiple NodeList entries.
• Node removal correctly updates both NodeList and nodeListIndex.
• Removing and re-adding the same node behaves correctly.
• nodeListIndex remains consistent after every add and remove operation.
• Existing scheduler cache tests continue to pass.

Added benchmarks for node add/remove operations at 100-, 500-, and 2000-node scale to compare the optimized implementation against the previous linear-scan approach.

Additional Notes

This optimization is internal to the scheduler cache and does not introduce any user-facing changes or API modifications.

The implementation reduces mutex hold time during node add/remove events, improving scalability and reducing lock contention in large clusters while preserving existing scheduler behavior.

Only files directly related to this optimization were modified:

• pkg/scheduler/cache/event_handlers.go
• pkg/scheduler/cache/cache.go (index initialization)
• pkg/scheduler/cache/*_test.go
• pkg/scheduler/cache/*_benchmark_test.go
• Documentation

The failing Jest CI is unrelated to this refactor. I verified the same failures reproduce on a clean upstream/master and originate from the recently merged test PRs #7646 and #7647.
