When JWT group sync is enabled with a restrictive JWTAllowGroups list, the local owner of an embedded-IdP (Dex) deployment can get locked out. The allow-groups check runs account-wide but local password users do not receive
external IdP group claims, so they can't satisfy the allowed list.
This skips JWT group evaluation for local Dex users so the restriction and JWT group sync continue to apply to external-IdP users as intended.
Embed Dex as a built-in IdP to simplify self-hosting setup.
Adds an embedded OIDC Identity Provider (Dex) with local user management and optional external IdP connectors (Google/GitHub/OIDC/SAML), plus device-auth flow for CLI login. Introduces instance onboarding/setup endpoints (including owner creation), field-level encryption for sensitive user data, a streamlined self-hosting provisioning script, and expanded APIs + test coverage for IdP management.
