Scaffold terraform-rancher: Authentik OIDC auth config
Manages Rancher's Keycloak(OIDC) auth provider via the rancher2 provider,
pointed at Authentik. Mirrors the terraform-authentik layout (terragrunt +
Vault-sourced secrets + Woodpecker plan/apply/pre-commit pipelines).

- modules/rancher: rancher2_auth_config_keycloak_oidc, client_secret read from
  Vault (kv/kubernetes/namespace/cattle-system/default/oauth-credentials);
  access_mode unrestricted to avoid admin lockout on enable.
- config/keycloakoidc.yaml: issuer/auth_endpoint at identity.unkin.net,
  client_id rancher, /verify-auth redirect, openid/profile/email scopes.
- environments/rancher.k8s.syd1.au.unkin.net: consul state at
  infra/terraform/rancher/, rancher2 provider api_url from the env name.
- rancher2 admin token read from kv/service/terraform/rancher (Makefile);
  to migrate to a dedicated Vault Rancher secrets engine (90-day token cap).

Validated with `tofu validate` (config valid against the rancher2 provider).
A live `plan` needs the Rancher admin API token seeded in Vault first.

# terraform-rancher
Terraform configuration for managing Rancher (rancher.k8s.syd1.au.unkin.net)
authentication via the [rancher2](https://registry.terraform.io/providers/rancher/rancher2)
provider. Mirrors the `terraform-authentik` pattern.
## Managed Resources
- **Keycloak(OIDC) auth config** — Authentik OIDC login for Rancher.
## Configuration
`config/keycloakoidc.yaml` defines the auth provider. The OAuth client secret is
read from Vault (kv-v2) — the same secret Authentik sets on its `rancher`
provider — and is never committed.
`access_mode: unrestricted` lets any authenticated Authentik user log in; Rancher
roles are granted to users/groups separately. This avoids locking the admin out
when the provider is first enabled.
## Usage
```sh
make plan # init + plan
make apply # init + plan + apply
make format # fmt tofu + terragrunt hcl
```
### Authentication
The rancher2 provider needs a Rancher admin API token, read from Vault at
`kv/service/terraform/rancher` (field `token`).
> **Note:** Rancher API tokens have a **90-day maximum** lifetime, so the static
> token must be rotated. This is intended to move to a dedicated Vault Rancher
> secrets engine that mints short-lived tokens on demand; when that lands, update
> the Makefile `vault_env` helper to `vault read` from that engine.
Set `VAULT_ROLEID` for local AppRole auth, or `VAULT_AUTH_METHOD=kubernetes`
for CI (Woodpecker).
