f4f43f5248 docs: fix broken GitHub code-reference blocks after fumadocs migration (#12213)
# Which Problems Are Solved

Pages in `apps/docs` that embed source from GitHub via the Docusaurus
convention

````
```js reference

https://github.com/zitadel/actions/blob/main/examples/org_metadata_claim.js
```
````

stopped working after the migration from Docusaurus to fumadocs. The old
`docusaurus-theme-github-codeblock` plugin used to fetch the file and
render it; fumadocs has no support for that meta, so the page rendered
the raw URL as plain code-block text. Visible at
`/docs/apis/actions/code-examples` and 16 other pages.

# How the Problems Are Solved

- Converted every ```` ```<lang> reference\n<URL>\n``` ```` block (46
total across 17 `.mdx` files) to the native fumadocs JSX form:
`<GithubCodeBlock url="<URL>" />`. The existing `<details>`/`<summary>`
collapsibles around blocks are kept — they're an authoring choice, not
part of the rendering bug.
- Updated `apps/docs/components/github-code-block.tsx` to render via
`DynamicCodeBlock` from `fumadocs-ui/components/dynamic-codeblock`
(proper shiki highlighting) instead of raw `CodeBlock` + `Pre` (which
produced unhighlighted output). Also fixed language detection so a URL
hash like `#L10-L20` no longer pollutes the language token.
- Registered `GithubCodeBlock` globally in
`apps/docs/mdx-components.tsx`, matching how every other shared
component (`APIPage`, `Callout`, `Tab/Tabs`, `Step/Steps`, `Admonition`,
`TerminologyUpdate`) is exposed. MDX files no longer need a local
`import`.

# Additional Changes

- Normalized the two MDX files that were already using the JSX form
(`examples/secure-api/python-django.mdx`,
`examples/secure-api/java-spring.mdx`): removed their now-redundant
local `import { GithubCodeBlock }` and rewrote 9 long-form
`<GithubCodeBlock url="..."></GithubCodeBlock>` tags to self-closing for
consistency.

# Additional Context

Verified locally with `pnpm --filter @zitadel/docs dev`:

- `/docs/apis/actions/code-examples` — 20 shiki-highlighted code blocks
rendered inside the `<details>` collapsibles (was 0).
- `/docs/apis/openidoauth/claims` — line-range hashes (`#L9-L11`)
honored.
- `/docs/examples/login/flutter` — mixed languages (xml/dart/html)
detected and highlighted.
- `/docs/guides/integrate/external-audit-log` — edge case of fenced
reference indented inside a numbered list also converted and rendered.

Greps:
- `^[ \t]*\`\`\`[a-zA-Z0-9]+ reference` in `apps/docs/content/**/*.mdx`
→ 0 matches.
- `<GithubCodeBlock url="` in `apps/docs/content/**/*.mdx` → 55 matches.
- `from '@/components/github-code-block'` in
`apps/docs/content/**/*.mdx` → 0 matches.

## LinkedIn Configuration
### Register a new client
1. Go to the LinkedIn Developer console and create a new App: https://www.linkedin.com/developers/apps/new
2. Add your App Name, your Company Page and a Logo
3. Add "Sign In with LinkedIn using OpenID Connect" by clicking "Request access"
4. Go to the Auth Settings of the App and add the following URL to the "Authorized redirect URLs"
- Login V1: `${CUSTOM_DOMAIN}/ui/login/login/externalidp/callback`
- Example redirect url for the domain `https://acme.zitadel.cloud` would look like this: `https://acme.zitadel.cloud/ui/login/login/externalidp/callback`
- Login V2: `${CUSTOM_DOMAIN}/idps/callback`
- In this case the url would look like this: `https://acme.zitadel.cloud/idps/callback`
5. Verify the app as your company
6. In the Auth - OAuth 2.0 scopes section you should see `openid`, `profile` and `email` listed
7. Save Client ID and Primary Client Secret from the Application credentials

### Create a new Generic OAuth Provider
<GenericOAuth components={props.components}
name=": e.g. LinkedIn"
authendpoint="https://www.linkedin.com/oauth/v2/authorization"
tokenendpoint="https://www.linkedin.com/oauth/v2/accessToken"
userendpoint="https://api.linkedin.com/v2/userinfo"
id="sub"
clientid=": Client id from the application previously created in your LinkedIn account"
clientsecret=": Client Secret from the application previously created in your LinkedIn account"
/>
<GeneralConfigDescription components={props.components} provider_account="LinkedIn account" />
