Chris Coutinho e331544cee feat: Implement RFC 8693 token exchange for Keycloak (ADR-002 Tier 2)
Implements OAuth 2.0 Token Exchange (RFC 8693) enabling the MCP server to
exchange service account tokens for user-scoped tokens. This provides an
alternative to refresh tokens for background operations.

**Core Implementation:**
- Added `get_service_account_token()` method to KeycloakOAuthClient for
  client_credentials grant
- Added `exchange_token_for_user()` method implementing RFC 8693 token exchange
- Fixed Fernet encryption key handling in RefreshTokenStorage (was incorrectly
  base64 decoding already-encoded keys)
- Updated OAuth configuration to support offline_access scope and refresh token
  storage infrastructure

**Keycloak Configuration:**
- Enabled `serviceAccountsEnabled` in realm-export.json
- Added `token.exchange.grant.enabled` attribute
- Added `client.token.exchange.standard.enabled` attribute (required for
  Keycloak 26.2+ Standard Token Exchange V2)
- Fresh Keycloak imports now correctly enable token exchange

**Docker Compose:**
- Added TOKEN_ENCRYPTION_KEY and ENABLE_OFFLINE_ACCESS environment variables
- Created oauth-tokens volume for refresh token storage
- Configured both mcp-oauth and mcp-keycloak services

**Testing & Documentation:**
- Added tests/manual/test_token_exchange.py - Validates complete RFC 8693 flow
- Added tests/manual/test_nextcloud_impersonate.py - Documents session-based
  impersonation limitations
- Added docs/oauth-impersonation-findings.md - Comprehensive investigation
  findings and resolution documentation

**Verified Working:**
 Service account token acquisition (client_credentials grant)
 RFC 8693 token exchange for internal-to-internal tokens
 Exchanged tokens validate with Nextcloud APIs
 Keycloak 26.4.2 Standard Token Exchange V2 support

**Known Limitations:**
- User impersonation (requested_subject) requires Keycloak Legacy V1 with
  preview features
- Cross-client token exchange limited to same realm
- Refresh token storage infrastructure ready but unused (MCP protocol limitation)

Dependencies: aiosqlite>=0.20.0
