platform-api Signing algorithm configurable - #3452

Conversation
…ed algorithm config RS256 JWT login-token signing had no PQC/hybrid migration path, and the only acknowledgement was an inline // TODO(pqc) comment — which post-quantum-cryptography.md directive 1 explicitly treats as equivalent to shipping the violation unfixed, since a comment isn't a tracked remediation. Replaces the comment with a real Auth.JWT.Algorithm config field (fails closed on any value other than the current "RS256") and a doc comment pointing at wso2#3450, which tracks the full ML-DSA-65 migration: getting an approved PQC-capable Go dependency through this repo's dependency-vetting process, implementing config-gated signing across config.go/auth_login.go/middleware/auth.go/server.go, and updating the RSA-only key-generation tooling. That work isn't bundled here since it requires a new dependency (github.com/cloudflare/circl) to go through dependency-management.md's vetting and the engineering-governance registry gate first, rather than being added silently alongside this fix.

Add a configuration-gated ML-DSA-65 path and retain RS256 only as an explicit legacy fallback.
The local JWT path is classical-only. Configuration validation defaults to and requires RS256, signing hard-codes RS256, and verification loads an RSA key. Wire ML-DSA-65 through key loading, signing, and verification. Test both fallback states. Do not silently keep RS256 as the default or remove an explicit fallback needed for legacy interoperability.
