Hey! @maxdorninger, could you please take a look on the other one ;) ?
Closes#145 ; seems like a must have thing
- Add `auth.registration_enabled` flag (default `false` — sounds safer
default in current setup)
- Password registration: `/auth/register` route will return 403 if
disabled
- OIDC registration: `UserManager.oauth_callback` is overridden to
reject user without match; so no auto-provision
- `/auth/metadata` exposes the flag to the frontend
- Frontend: signup link hidden on the login card; direct navigation to
`/login/signup` redirects to `/login` via a `+page.ts` load guard

Also this means uses need to be created somehow -- so..
- Add POST `/users` - admin-protected endpoint to create a new users
(created user can be used with OIDC)
- Fronted: Add new user button and modal dialog
