fix(server): align OAuth discovery metadata with MCP / RFC 9728 spec (#19838)
## Summary

Three small spec-compliance fixes called out in an audit against the
[MCP authorization spec
(draft)](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/draft/basic/authorization)
and RFC 9728 / RFC 9207.

### 1. Split Protected Resource Metadata by path (RFC 9728 §3.2)

> The `resource` value returned MUST be identical to the protected
resource's resource identifier value into which the well-known URI path
suffix was inserted.

Today a single handler serves both
\`/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource\` and
\`/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource/mcp\` and returns \`resource:
<origin>/mcp\` from both. That's wrong for the root form — per RFC 9728
the root URL corresponds to the **origin as resource**, and only the
\`/mcp\`-suffixed URL corresponds to \`<origin>/mcp\`.

After this PR:

| Request | `resource` field |
|---|---|
| `GET /.well-known/oauth-protected-resource` | `https://<host>` |
| `GET /.well-known/oauth-protected-resource/mcp` | `https://<host>/mcp`
|

Both still return the same `authorization_servers`, `scopes_supported`,
and `bearer_methods_supported`.

Claude's current flow happens to work because our WWW-Authenticate
points at the root form and Claude compares `resource` against what it
connected to. Strict clients probing the path-aware URL first were
rejecting us.

### 2. Advertise `authorization_response_iss_parameter_supported: true`
(RFC 9207)

Defense against OAuth mix-up attacks. Required by the [OAuth 2.1
security
BCP](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-oauth-v2-1).
Signals that clients receiving an authorization response will find the
issuer in the `iss` parameter and can validate it.

### 3. Fix `WWW-Authenticate` challenge: point at path-aware PRM URL,
add `scope` param

- Was: `Bearer
resource_metadata=\"https://<host>/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource\"`
- Now: `Bearer
resource_metadata=\"https://<host>/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource/mcp\",
scope=\"api profile\"`

After change (1), only the path-aware URL returns a PRM document whose
`resource` matches what the MCP client connected to (\`<host>/mcp\`).
Pointing clients at the right URL keeps discovery consistent.

The `scope` parameter is a SHOULD in RFC 6750 and lets clients ask for
least-privilege scopes on first authorization.

## Not in this PR (queued separately)

From the same audit:

- **Audit JWT `aud` (audience) validation** — the spec requires the
server to reject tokens whose audience doesn't match this resource. Need
a read-only code review to confirm; filing as a follow-up.
- **Audit PKCE enforcement** — we advertise
`code_challenge_methods_supported: [\"S256\"]`; need to confirm the
\`/authorize\` flow actually rejects requests missing `code_challenge`.
- **403 `insufficient_scope` challenge format** for step-up auth.
- **CIMD (Client ID Metadata Documents)** support — newer spec
alternative to DCR.

## Test plan

- [x] \`yarn jest
--testPathPatterns=\"mcp-auth.guard|oauth-discovery.controller\"\` → 4/4
passing
- [x] \`tsc --noEmit\` clean on touched files
- [ ] After deploy:
  \`\`\`bash
curl -s https://<host>/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource | jq
.resource
  # expect: \"https://<host>\"
curl -s https://<host>/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource/mcp | jq
.resource
  # expect: \"https://<host>/mcp\"
  curl -sI -X POST https://<host>/mcp | grep -i www-authenticate
# expect: Bearer resource_metadata=\"…/oauth-protected-resource/mcp\",
scope=\"api profile\"
  \`\`\`

- #19836 — CORS exposes `WWW-Authenticate` + `MCP-Protocol-Version` so
browser clients can read them. Pairs with this PR.
- #19755 / #19766 / #19824 — the earlier chain that got host-aware
discovery and \`TRUST_PROXY\` working.

Why Twenty

We built Twenty for three reasons:

CRMs are too expensive, and users are trapped. Companies use locked-in customer data to hike prices. It shouldn't be that way.

A fresh start is required to build a better experience. We can learn from past mistakes and craft a cohesive experience inspired by new UX patterns from tools like Notion, Airtable or Linear.

We believe in open-source and community. Hundreds of developers are already building Twenty together. Once we have plugin capabilities, a whole ecosystem will grow around it.
