fix(observability): repair Grafana Authentik OAuth2 relying-party login

The Authentik SSO button returned "Server Error" (500) because the grafana
provider authorization_flow was NULL and the authorize view crashed building a
None flow planner. After that, the login failed with "InternalError": no email
claim reached Grafana, so it fell back to GET <api_url>/emails, which authentik
404s.

Unit env: request authentik real scopes (openid email profile, not the GitLab
user:email that crashes the authorize view); read claims from the id_token
(USE_ID_TOKEN=true) and drop ?api=1 from the API URL (Grafana v13 turns it into
a /emails 404); pin email/sub/preferred_username attribute paths; allow
first-login provisioning since the Anubis->Authentik guard fronts the callback.

scripts/authentik-grafana-sso-fix.sh idempotently re-applies the two IdP-side
causes (NULL authorization_flow; the grafana-email-scope mapping that returned
a bare string instead of {"email":..}). Verified end to end: RP login lands on /
and /api/user answers 200 with the real email, user provisioned as Viewer.

# Repair the Grafana OAuth2 relying-party SSO on Dankclaw's authentik.
#
# grafana.franksdank.cloud logs in through authentik as an OAuth2 relying party.
# Two DB-side facts (the provider was created by hand via `ak shell`, never
# repo-managed) silently broke that login, and BOTH had previously been
# mis-recorded here as a single "the property-mapping evaluator is broken, so
# userinfo returns only `sub`" myth. They are neither, and the evaluator is fine:
#
# 1. provider.authorization_flow was NULL. The authorize view builds a flow
# planner from it and crashes with
# `AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'slug'` — an HTTP 500
# "Server Error — Powered by authentik", before any claim is touched.
# Fix: point it at default-provider-authorization-implicit-consent, the
# flow every other provider in this instance already uses.
# 2. The `grafana-email-scope` ScopeMapping's expression was the bare string
# `user.email`. authentik merges a scope mapping's result into the token as
# a MAPPING: a returned dict adds its keys as claims; a returned string is
# keyed under the mapping's NAME ("grafana-email-scope"), so no `email`
# claim is ever emitted. Grafana, finding no email, falls back to
# GET <api_url>/emails, authentik 404s that path, and the login dies with
# "Login failed: InternalError". Fix: return
# {"email": user.email, "email_verified": True} — the shape the stock
# OpenID 'email' mapping uses. The dict-valued `grafana-profile-scope`
# mapping has always worked, which is the proof the evaluator is fine.
#
# This is authentik DB state. It is NOT in any deployable file: a blueprint
# re-import, or an ak-shell re-creation of the grafana provider, reverts BOTH
# facts and the symptom returns verbatim. Re-run this after any such rebuild.
# Every step is idempotent.
#
# Grafana's own half — SCOPES="openid email profile", USE_ID_TOKEN=true, no
# `?api=1` on the API URL, ALLOW_SIGN_UP=true — lives in
# dankclaw/observability/quadlet/grafana.container and deploys normally.
#
# Usage: authentik-grafana-sso-fix.sh (override host: AUTHENTIK_HOST=…)
