feat: add optional connection_id to authorize URLs

[KomanRudden]

Allow login, register, and createOrg to pass connection_id so custom sign-in pages can skip Kinde’s identity picker. Forward the query parameter in J2EE and Spring the same way as invitation_code.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• New Features

  • Added optional connection ID support for login, registration, and organization creation.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Connection IDs now flow through core session, J2EE, and Spring OAuth2 authorization paths. Blank values are ignored, valid values are trimmed, and core interface overloads reject unsupported nonblank IDs.

Changes

Connection ID authorization

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Core session connection ID support kinde-core/src/main/java/com/kinde/..., kinde-core/src/test/java/com/kinde/session/*	Session APIs add connectionId overloads. Implementations trim nonblank values and add connection_id to authorization URLs. Interface overloads reject unsupported nonblank values.
J2EE request authorization flow kinde-j2ee/src/main/java/com/kinde/..., kinde-j2ee/src/test/java/com/kinde/...	Filters and servlets normalize connection_id, pass it through login, registration, and organization creation flows, and retain existing validation.
Spring OAuth2 connection ID forwarding kinde-springboot/kinde-springboot-core/src/main/java/com/kinde/spring/*, kinde-springboot/kinde-springboot-core/src/test/java/com/kinde/spring/*	The OAuth2 resolver forwards valid trimmed connection IDs and preserves invitation parameters. Javadoc documents servlet and reactive behavior.
Example OAuth2 redirect configuration playground/kinde-springboot-starter-example/src/main/java/com/kinde/spring/config/SecurityConfig.java	The example redirects successful OAuth2 logins to /home, including when a saved request exists.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to c08b2

This adds optional connection ID forwarding for supported authorization flows, allowing direct identity-provider routing while preserving invitation handling and ignoring blank values. No current merge-blocking risk is identified.

I enabled own sign-in screen

I used the Google connection_id

I then appended it to the login URL:

http://localhost:8080/oauth2/authorization/kinde?connection_id=conn_01914af1f08bf777e7475a02abc3c9cb

In incognito browser I used this URL and was redirected to the Google login and not Kinde's

Once I logged in I was asked to choose an organization

And finally redirected to the home screen signed in

[dtoxvanilla1991]

Went through the diff, the KindeClientSession interface change, and the Serena-style trace of every caller/implementer - no regressions outside the touched files, and the interface's default methods correctly reject connectionId for implementations that don't support it instead of silently dropping it (good catch addressing that in the follow-up commit). connection_id matches Kinde's own documented param name across other SDKs. Manual verification in the thread (Google connection bypassing the picker) plus solid unit test coverage across core/J2EE/Spring gives me confidence this works end to end. Approving.
