Upgrade Azure.Identity dependency to version 1.8.0 #1919

Closed
@scottaddie

Description

In v1.8.0 of the Azure Identity library for .NET (Azure.Identity), token caching was added for the ManagedIdentityCredential type. Token lifetime and refreshing is handled automatically. See https://github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-net/blob/main/sdk/identity/Azure.Identity/CHANGELOG.md#180-beta1-2022-10-13. Under the hood, MSAL's in-memory cache is used. This dependency upgrade will help mitigate Azure AD throttling issues that occur from calling it too frequently.

For Java customers, this issue has already been addressed as of the latest stable JDBC driver release. See microsoft/mssql-jdbc#1930.
