Chris Coutinho 71e77e95bc refactor: integrate token exchange into unified get_client() pattern
Resolves the token exchange implementation gap where get_session_client()
was implemented but never used by tools. Unifies token acquisition into a
single async get_client() method that handles both pass-through and token
exchange modes transparently.

Core Changes:
- Make get_client() async and merge token exchange logic into it
- Remove scopes parameter from token exchange (Nextcloud doesn't support OAuth scopes)
- Update all 8 tool modules to use await get_client(ctx)
- Fix provisioning decorator to skip checks in BasicAuth mode

Token Acquisition Modes:
1. BasicAuth: Returns shared client (no token operations)
2. OAuth pass-through (default): Verifies and passes Flow 1 token to Nextcloud
3. OAuth token exchange (opt-in): Exchanges Flow 1 token for ephemeral token via RFC 8693

Key Architectural Clarifications:
- Progressive Consent (Flow 1/2) = Authorization architecture
- Token Exchange = Token acquisition pattern during tool execution
- Refresh tokens from Flow 2 are NEVER used for tool calls (only background jobs)
- Nextcloud scopes are "soft-scopes" enforced by MCP server, not IdP

Documentation Updates:
- ADR-004: Added comprehensive token acquisition patterns section
- CRITICAL-TOKEN-EXCHANGE-PATTERN.md: Updated to reflect implementation status
- CLAUDE.md: Updated architectural patterns with async get_client()

Testing:
- All 36 unit tests passing
- All 4 smoke tests passing (BasicAuth mode)
- Linting issues fixed (ruff)

Configuration:
ENABLE_TOKEN_EXCHANGE=false (default) - pass-through mode
ENABLE_TOKEN_EXCHANGE=true (opt-in) - token exchange mode

"""RFC 8693 Token Exchange implementation for ADR-004 Progressive Consent.
This module implements the token exchange pattern to convert Flow 1 MCP tokens
(aud: "mcp-server") into ephemeral delegated Nextcloud tokens (aud: "nextcloud")
for session operations.
Key Properties:
- On-demand generation during tool execution
- Ephemeral tokens (NOT stored, discarded after use)
- Limited scopes (only what tool needs)
- Short-lived (5 minutes default)
