Documents the SCIM 2.0 handler introduced in #25572 and how to opt in.

Adds a "SCIM 2.0 handler" subsection to the SCIM section of docs/admin/users/oidc-auth/index.md:

  • The handler follows RFC 7644 and supports user provisioning/deprovisioning and user listing.
  • Opt in with CODER_SCIM_USE_LEGACY=false (also --scim-use-legacy / scimUseLegacy); requires a server restart.
  • Behavior notes: delete/deactivate suspends (never hard-deletes), reactivation goes through dormant, usernames are immutable.
  • Notes it will eventually become the default behavior.

Behavior details were verified against enterprise/coderd/scimroutes.go, enterprise/coderd/scim/, and the SCIM Use Legacy option in codersdk/deployment.go.

make lint/markdown and make lint/emdash pass.

Documentation Check

This PR is a docs change. One accuracy issue in the new prose:

Updates Needed

  • docs/admin/users/oidc-auth/index.md - The behavior note "Attempts to change userName via PUT or PATCH return a mutability error" does not match the code in enterprise/coderd/scim/users.go:

    • PUT (Replace) returns a plain 400 via scimErrors.ScimErrorBadRequest("changing the 'userName' field is not supported ..."). That helper sets no scimType, so it is not a mutability-typed error (there is a separate ScimErrorMutability the code does not use).
    • PATCH (Patch) only processes the active attribute and silently ignores userName (see the // TODO: Honor mutability rules of fields like userName at users.go:323), so it returns no error at all.

    Suggested reword: keep "Usernames are immutable," but describe the actual behavior, e.g. that a PUT with a changed userName is rejected with a 400 Bad Request, and PATCH currently only applies the active attribute and ignores other fields.

The rest of the section checks out against the code: opt-in via CODER_SCIM_USE_LEGACY=false / --scim-use-legacy / scimUseLegacy (default true, so false opts in), DELETE and active: false both suspend (never hard-delete), and re-activation/re-creation of a suspended user goes through the dormant state (scimUserStatus).
