Copilot review (#2287), two findings — and taken together they said the marker
was the wrong mechanism, so this removes it rather than patching it again:
- A transient failure in our CIMD preflight recorded no marker, so a *successful*
SDK fallback discovery that advertised CIMD was still stored as `dcr`.
- `existing` and `existingKind` could describe different registrations, because
`clientInformation()` answers preregistered-first while `clientRegistrationKind()`
prefers the issuer's dynamic slot.
SDK v2 `auth()` persists the authorization-server metadata via
`saveDiscoveryState` *before* it reads or writes client information, and it takes
its URL-based-client-ID branch — rather than `registerClient` — exactly when that
metadata advertises `client_id_metadata_document_supported` and a
`clientMetadataUrl` is configured. So the branch is not inferred at all now: it is
read back from the state the SDK itself just wrote.
`resolveSdkRegistrationKind` becomes two cases. A save for an issuer that already
has a registration under this `client_id` is a back-stamp, answered by that
registration's recorded kind — so an existing DCR on the metadata URL stays
`dcr`. A save for an issuer with none is a new registration, answered by the
discovery state, guarded on the metadata describing that same issuer.
This drops `cimdClientMetadataUrl` and its storage accessors entirely, and
restores `ensureCimdClientRegistration` to a plain issuer-bound pre-registration.
Invalid-client recovery, second-issuer CIMD, second-issuer DCR minting the
metadata URL, and preflight failure are all consequences of the two cases rather
than separate mechanisms.
