Did you inspect the code for acquire_token_for_client or try whether acquire_token_for_client caches? In the C# flavor of MSAL, acquire_token_for_client does the caching itself without external logic.

It does appear to cache. The first time through it falls into the fetch. Next pass through it does not. With that said, I did not test for expiration.

Fixes #320
This implements the new AppCredentials model.
Ditched ADAL in favor of MSAL (as that team states MSAL is the future).
As a side note, we are using the caching in MSAL instead of our own, which simplifies things.
