feat(agent): support per-RP credential selection

[pando85]

Summary

Allow an agent profile to override credential-selection behavior per RP while preserving the existing profile-level selector as the backward-compatible default.

This addresses multi-account and multi-RP profiles where one global single / first-matching / newest policy is deterministic but not semantically correct for every relying party.

Configuration

[agents.profiles.coding]
mode = "same-user"
principal_user = "alice"
credential_selection = "single"

[[agents.profiles.coding.rules]]
rp_id = "github.com"
authenticate = "autonomous"
register = "deny"
credential_selection = "newest"

[[agents.profiles.coding.rules]]
rp_id = "gitlab.example.com"
authenticate = "autonomous"
register = "deny"
credential_selection = "first-matching"

Selection precedence is:

1. exact RP rule override;
2. wildcard fallback rule override;
3. profile-level default.

The RP's allowCredentials list still narrows candidates before Passless applies the configured ambiguity policy.

Security behavior

• explicit credential:<ref> rule overrides must remain inside profile credential_refs when that allowlist is configured;
• the global "*" rule cannot pin one credential:<ref> because a credential reference is RP-specific;
• missing per-rule selectors preserve current profile-level behavior;
• exact RP rules continue to override wildcard fallback rules.

Implementation

• add optional credential_selection to AgentRpRule;
• add AgentProfileConfig::credential_selection_for_rp;
• use the effective RP-specific selector in the authentication credential-selection pipeline;
• update workspace Rust rule literals for the additive field;
• document precedence and multi-RP examples;
• add focused tests for per-RP-over-profile and exact-over-wildcard precedence.

Validation

The final implementation passed:

• cargo fmt --all;
• cargo check --workspace --all-targets --all-features with repository native dependencies;
• cargo test -p passless-core agent::config --lib.

This PR remains draft while normal repository CI runs on the clean single-commit branch.

Review focus

1. exact/wildcard/profile precedence;
2. interaction with RP-provided allowCredentials;
3. explicit credential-ref scope validation;
4. compatibility of the additive rule field with existing profile-level configuration.

✅ Fix pushed:

Fixed the end-of-file-fixer pre-commit failure by removing the extra trailing newline in docs/agents/configuration.md. The file had two trailing newlines instead of one.

⚠️ Branch update and conflict resolution:

This PR had extensive merge conflicts (283 files with add/add conflicts) because it was based on an old commit before the agent infrastructure was merged to master. The branch was attempting to add the entire agent codebase (142k+ lines) which conflicted with agent features already merged in #396, #402, #406, #408, #409, #410, and #411.

Resolution: Created a clean re-implementation in PR #415 that applies only the per-RP credential selection feature on top of the current master branch.

The new PR includes:

• ✅ Per-RP credential selection override in AgentRpRule
• ✅ credential_selection_for_rp() method for precedence resolution
• ✅ Updated authentication pipeline to use per-RP selector
• ✅ Validation for credential ref scope per rule
• ✅ Documentation with precedence rules and examples
• ✅ All test fixtures updated with the new field

Please review #415 instead.

Summary

Successfully resolved merge conflicts in PR #412 by creating a clean re-implementation in PR #415.

What happened:

• PR #412 was based on an old commit and had 283 add/add conflicts (142k+ lines)

Solution:

Created fix/per-rp-credential-selection-v2 branch from current master with only the per-RP credential selection feature:

Changes implemented:

• Added optional credential_selection field to AgentRpRule struct
• Added credential_selection_for_rp() method to AgentProfileConfig for precedence resolution
• Updated authentication pipeline in sign.rs to use per-RP selector
• Added validation to enforce credential ref scope per rule
• Prevented wildcard rules from using credential references
• Updated all test fixtures (24 locations) with the new field
• Added comprehensive documentation with precedence rules and examples

Note: Build verification was not possible due to missing system dependencies (libudev), but all code changes follow the existing patterns and should compile correctly once the dependencies are available.
