Subject: [PATCH 1/8] login: default to loopback browser flow, add --device
 fallback
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

`entire login` now defaults to the loopback authorization-code flow
(auth-go's new authcode package): open a browser, get redirected back
to a local 127.0.0.1 listener, exchange the code — no code to type, no
poll latency. The device-code flow stays available behind `--device`
and is also the automatic fallback when there's no interactive terminal
(CI, piped, SSH without a tty), matching gh / gcloud / aws sso.

- provider: add AuthorizePath (v1 /oauth/authorize, v2 /authorize —
  CONFIRM the v2 path against the auth host's OIDC discovery doc before
  relying on it in production).
- auth.Client: build an authcode.Client alongside the deviceflow client
  and expose StartBrowserAuth + the BrowserAuthFlow shim (parallel to the
  existing deviceflow shim), flattening TokenSet to (access, refresh).
- login.go: shouldUseBrowserLogin() flow selection, runBrowserLogin(),
  and a shared persistLogin() tail reused by both flows. openBrowser is a
  no-op under test (ENTIRE_TEST_TTY) so the browser flow is testable
  without launching a real browser.

Tests: unit coverage for the flow selector and runBrowserLogin error/
messaging paths; an integration test drives the full loopback flow by
playing the browser (GET the callback with the state parsed off the
printed authorize URL). Existing device-flow tests now exercise the
--device / non-interactive fallback path.

Stacked on auth-go's authcode package: before merge, bump the auth-go
dependency to the released tag (go get github.com/entireio/auth-go@<tag>).

Subject: [PATCH 2/8] go.mod: bump auth-go to authcode-loopback-flow branch

Pulls in the new authcode package (RFC 8252 loopback + PKCE) that the
login browser flow depends on. Pinned to the branch pseudo-version
(entireio/auth-go#16); re-pin to the released tag once that PR merges.

Subject: [PATCH 3/8] login: align browser-flow output with the device flow

Make the default loopback flow read like --device: show "Login URL:",
pause on "Press Enter to open in browser...", then print "Waiting for
sign-in... " with no newline so persistLogin's "Login complete." lands
on the same line. waitForEnter now short-circuits under test
(interactive.UnderTest) like openBrowser, so forcing interactive mode in
tests no longer blocks on a real /dev/tty read.

Subject: [PATCH 4/8] login: show auth host instead of the long authorize URL
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The browser flow now prints "Logging in to:  <auth host>" rather than
the full authorize URL (the PKCE challenge + loopback redirect made it
long and unreadable). The full URL is shown only as a fallback when the
browser can't be opened, which is also what a headless host hits.

openBrowser reports failure under test (no usable browser on a CI host,
and we mustn't spawn a real one), so the integration test recovers the
ephemeral loopback callback URL from that fallback line on stdout —
replacing the file-based seam from the previous iteration.

- nolint:ireturn on StartBrowserAuth and its test fake — the

Subject: [PATCH 7/8] login: drop ireturn nolint via concrete flow; tidy output
 spacing

Avoid the ireturn lint suppression by following "accept interfaces,
return structs" (as the device-flow shim already does):

- auth.BrowserAuthFlow is now a concrete struct (was an interface);
  StartBrowserAuth returns *BrowserAuthFlow.
- runBrowserLogin accepts a cli-local browserAuthFlow interface plus the
  base URL, with StartBrowserAuth moved up into newLoginCmd. The fake
  flow satisfies the local interface; no nolint anywhere.

Output: one space after "Logging in to:" and a single blank line before
"Waiting for sign-in..." (the leading newline doubled up with the
post-Enter newline).

Subject: [PATCH 8/8] test: correct stale browser-flow comment
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

openBrowser reports failure under test (not a no-op), forcing the
fallback URL path the test scrapes — update the doc comment to match.
Addresses a PR review note.
