SAL annotations (`_Success_`, `_Function_class_`) placed before the `template` keyword cause MSVC compilation errors (C2059) when TVS / static analysis is enabled. The `template` head must always come first; annotations go between it and the return type. Fixed 5 occurrences: - `src/perf/lib/SecNetPerfMain.cpp`: 4 instances of `_Success_` before `template` - `src/test/lib/ApiTest.cpp`: 1 instance of `_Function_class_` before `template` Existing tests cover this change. No new tests needed — this is a compilation fix only (no behavioral change). No documentation impact.
