refactor(identity): rename provider_id to external_account_id and restructure schema

[danielhe4rt]

Summary

This PR refactors the external identity schema by renaming provider_id to external_account_id and consolidating OAuth credentials directly into the ExternalIdentity model.

Changes

Database Schema

• Renamed providers table to external_identities
• Renamed provider_id column to external_account_id across all modules
• Removed provider_tokens table (now consolidated into credentials JSON column)
• Added AccessToken model deletion (credentials now stored inline)
• Added new migration: 2026_03_21_000001_migrate_providers_to_external_identities.php

New Enums

• CredentialsType: OAuth2, ApiKey, etc.
• IdentityType: External, System, Service, etc.

New Components

• ClientAccessManager: Data class for storing encrypted OAuth credentials
• AsCredentials: Cast for automatic encryption/decryption of credentials

Updated Modules

• activity: Message/Voice models now use external_identity_id
• bot-discord: All events and commands updated to use new column name
• community: Meeting and Feedback endpoints updated
• gamification: Character badge/bonus tests updated

Breaking Changes

• provider_id column renamed to external_account_id
• AccessToken model removed (use ExternalIdentity::$credentials instead)
• providers table renamed to external_identities

Migration Required

Run the migration to update existing data:

php artisan migrate

Test Status

All tests have been updated and should pass with the new schema.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

This PR replaces the legacy provider_id identifier with external_account_id across models, DTOs, requests, forms, actions, and tests. It adds a migration that transforms providers/provider_tokens into external_identities, embeds encrypted credentials into a new credentials column, and renames dependent FK columns to external_identity_id. New types and utilities were added (ClientAccessManager, AsCredentials cast, CredentialsType and IdentityType enums), soft deletes were enabled on ExternalIdentity, and the AccessToken model and factory were removed.
