Frank 9cc8ca1c88 docs(authentik): record the 7-day login-session TTL and add a setter script
The login-session lifetime (raised to days=7 on 2026-10-20) is owned by the
default-authentication-login stage's session_duration, not a global setting and
not SESSION_COOKIE_AGE. Authentik exposes no SESSION_SAVE_EVERY_REQUEST, so the
window is absolute. session_duration is a STRING idiom; a timedelta stores a form
timedelta_from_string rejects, crashing login. Add scripts/authentik-set-login-session-duration.sh
that validates the form before writing (DB state, not repo-managed, re-run after
a blueprint re-import). Trim the page back under the OKF 500-line cap. tests/run.sh green.

# Set the authentik login-session TTL on Dankclaw.
#
# The login-session lifetime is governed by the `default-authentication-login`
# stage's `session_duration`, NOT a global setting and NOT SESSION_COOKIE_AGE
# (that is the pre-login session, sessions.unauthenticated_age). Authentik does
# not expose SESSION_SAVE_EVERY_REQUEST at all, so the session is an absolute
# window from login, not a sliding one.
#
# The field is a STRING in authentik's own idiom ("days=7", "seconds=30",
# "hours=12") — not a Python timedelta. Writing str(timedelta(days=7)) stores
# "7 days, 0:00:00", which authentik's timedelta_from_string parser REJECTS
# (ValueError), and login then crashes computing the session expiry. Always pass
# the "key=value" form; this script validates it before writing.
#
# Existing sessions keep their old expiry; the new TTL applies from the next
# login. This is DB state — it is NOT repo-managed and a blueprint re-import or
# rebuild-from-scratch reverts it. Run this again after such a rebuild.
#
# Usage: authentik-set-login-session-duration.sh ["days=7"] (default days=7)
