Lens Authentication

Lens authentication uses a sign-in-with-Ethereum style challenge: a client requests a signing message from the Lens API, the user signs it with their wallet, and the API returns short-lived access and refresh tokens scoped to a specific Account and App. The auth flow supports owner, manager, and onboarding-user roles.
