* fix(crypto): use authenticated encryption for IDP intent tokens
IDP intent tokens were encrypted with AES-CFB which provides no
integrity protection, making them malleable. Switch to A256GCM via
the existing AuthAlgorithm interface (EncryptToken/DecryptToken),
the same approach already used for OIDC and session tokens.
The idpConfigEncryption key type is widened from EncryptionAlgorithm
to AuthEncryptionAlgorithm so that data-at-rest encryption (IDP
client secrets, LDAP bind passwords, SAML keys) continues to use
the CFB path unmodified.

* fix(proto): raise IDP intent token max length to 500 for authenticated tokens
The switch to authenticated A256GCM (JWE compact serialization) makes IDP
intent tokens longer (~270 chars) than the previous AES-CFB base64 output.
Raise the max_len/max_length validation and OpenAPI constraints on every
idp_intent_token field from 200 to 500 so the new tokens are accepted:
user v2/v2beta (idp + user_service), session v2/v2beta, and resources
user v3alpha.

# Which Problems Are Solved
This PR adds support for storing and retrieving refresh tokens from
external identity providers during the IDP intent flow.
# How the Problems Are Solved
* Updated `idp.proto` (v2 and v2beta): added an optional `refresh_token`
field to `IDPOAuthAccessInformation`, which, in turn, is used in
`RetrieveIdentityProviderIntentResponse`
* Added the `IDPRefreshToken` field to the IDP intent `SucceededEvent`
struct, and updated the corresponding constructor to set the refresh
token
* Added the `IDPRefreshToken` field to `IDPIntentWriteModel`, and
updated `reduceOAuthSucceededEvent` to populate refresh token from
events
* Updated `tokensForSucceededIDPIntent` function to extract and encrypt
the refresh token from IDP session, if set
* Updated `idpOAuthTokensToPb` function to decrypt refresh token before
returning to clients
* Updated unit and integration tests
# Additional Changes
Updated the link to the JWT IDP docs linked in the Console
# Additional Context
- Closes https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/issues/11047
# Which Problems Are Solved
In login V2, when the user started the login flow of an external IDP,
there was no login_hint passed to the external provider. This required
the user to enter their username again. Whilst they already entered it
in Zitadel. By adding the `login_hint` parameter, the username should
already be filled in on the external idp.
# How the Problems Are Solved
Pass the `login_hint` parameter to the external idp.
# Additional Changes
Also added the `login_hint` to the event-store for audit trailing.
# Additional Context
- Closes#11392

# Which Problems Are Solved
The commands for the resource based v2beta AuthorizationService API are
added.
Authorizations, previously knows as user grants, give a user in a
specific organization and project context roles.
The project can be owned or granted.
The given roles can be used to restrict access within the projects
applications.
The commands for the resource based v2beta InteralPermissionService API
are added.
Administrators, previously knows as memberships, give a user in a
specific organization and project context roles.
The project can be owned or granted.
The give roles give the user permissions to manage different resources
in Zitadel.
API definitions from https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/issues/9165 are
implemented.
Contains endpoints for user metadata.

# Which Problems Are Solved
The current maintained gRPC server in combination with a REST (grpc)
gateway is getting harder and harder to maintain. Additionally, there
have been and still are issues with supporting / displaying `oneOf`s
correctly.
We therefore decided to exchange the server implementation to
connectRPC, which apart from supporting connect as protocol, also also
"standard" gRCP clients as well as HTTP/1.1 / rest like clients, e.g.
curl directly call the server without any additional gateway.
# How the Problems Are Solved
- All v2 services are moved to connectRPC implementation. (v1 services
are still served as pure grpc servers)
- All gRPC server interceptors were migrated / copied to a corresponding
connectRPC interceptor.
- API.ListGrpcServices and API. ListGrpcMethods were changed to include
the connect services and endpoints.
- gRPC server reflection was changed to a `StaticReflector` using the
`ListGrpcServices` list.
- The `grpc.Server` interfaces was split into different combinations to
be able to handle the different cases (grpc server and prefixed gateway,
connect server with grpc gateway, connect server only, ...)
- Docs of services serving connectRPC only with no additional gateway
(instance, webkey, project, app, org v2 beta) are changed to expose that
- since the plugin is not yet available on buf, we download it using
`postinstall` hook of the docs
# Additional Changes
- WebKey service is added as v2 service (in addition to the current
v2beta)

# Which Problems Are Solved
The current user V2 API returns a `[]byte` containing a whole HTML
document including the form on `StartIdentifyProviderIntent` for intents
based on form post (e.g. SAML POST bindings). This is not usable for
most clients as they cannot handle that and render a whole page inside
their app.
For redirect based intents, the url to which the client needs to
redirect is returned.
# How the Problems Are Solved
- Changed the returned type to a new `FormData` message containing the
url and a `fields` map.
- internal changes:
- Session.GetAuth now returns an `Auth` interfacce and error instead of
(content string, redirect bool)
- Auth interface has two implementations: `RedirectAuth` and `FormAuth`
- All use of the GetAuth function now type switch on the returned auth
object
- A template has been added to the login UI to execute the form post
automatically (as is).
# Additional Changes
- Some intent integration test did not check the redirect url and were
wrongly configured.
# Additional Context
- relates to zitadel/typescript#410
# Which Problems Are Solved
Some OAuth2 and OIDC providers require the use of PKCE for all their
clients. While ZITADEL already recommended the same for its clients, it
did not yet support the option on the IdP configuration.
# How the Problems Are Solved
- A new boolean `use_pkce` is added to the add/update generic OAuth/OIDC
endpoints.
- A new checkbox is added to the generic OAuth and OIDC provider
templates.
- The `rp.WithPKCE` option is added to the provider if the use of PKCE
has been set.
- The `rp.WithCodeChallenge` and `rp.WithCodeVerifier` options are added
to the OIDC/Auth BeginAuth and CodeExchange function.
- Store verifier or any other persistent argument in the intent or auth
request.
- Create corresponding session object before creating the intent, to be
able to store the information.
- (refactored session structs to use a constructor for unified creation
and better overview of actual usage)
Here's a screenshot showing the URI including the PKCE params:

# Additional Changes
None.
# Additional Context
- Closes#6449
- This PR replaces the existing PR (#8228) of @doncicuto. The base he
did was cherry picked. Thank you very much for that!

# Which Problems Are Solved
- If a SCIM endpoint is called with an orgID in the URL that is not the
resource owner, no error is returned, and the action is executed.
# How the Problems Are Solved
- The orgID provided in the SCIM URL path must match the resource owner
of the target user. Otherwise, an error will be returned.
# Additional Context
Part of https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/issues/8140
# Which Problems Are Solved
There is no option to only query auth methods related to specific
domains.
# How the Problems Are Solved
Add domain as attribute to the ListAuthenticationMethodTypes request.
# Additional Changes
OwnerRemoved column removed from the projection.

# Which Problems Are Solved
IDPLinks list and other list endpoints can provide you with empty
results if the used user has no permission for the information.
# How the Problems Are Solved
List endpoints with subelements to users, and provided userIDQuery, will
return a PermissionDenied error if no permission for the user exsists.
# Additional Changes
Function to check for permission is re-used from the GetUserByID.
# Additional Context
Closes#8451
# Which Problems Are Solved
The v2beta services are stable but not GA.
# How the Problems Are Solved
The v2beta services are copied to v2. The corresponding v1 and v2beta
services are deprecated.
