* fix(auth): keep a retired auth JSON from stranding a migrated store

Runtime failed closed with AUTH_PROFILE_MIGRATION_REQUIRED whenever a retired
credential file was present, even when the canonical SQLite store already held
the agent's profiles. One leftover auth.json therefore made a fully migrated
install unusable, and the gateway lifecycle preflight refused start/restart on
top of it, so every channel and provider stayed offline until Doctor ran.

A legacy file is now only fatal when the canonical store cannot serve
credentials. Doctor's importer never overwrites a usable stored credential, so
a file sitting beside a populated store is unarchived bytes, not pending
migration: runtime logs a one-time warning and keeps serving. An empty store
with a credential file still fails closed and never falls through to
environment auth. Startup degrades that owner to configured-unavailable
instead of refusing to boot, which lets the lifecycle preflight go away.

* refactor(secrets): retire the auth-profiles.json vocabulary

Auth profiles moved to SQLite, but operator-facing surfaces still named the
retired JSON file. The duplicate-agentDir error told operators to copy
auth-profiles.json to share credentials, which does nothing and lands the
second agent in a migration-required state; `openclaw migrate plan codex`
reported a target file that is never created; and the secrets picker labelled
candidates with a filename that no longer exists.

Renames the SecretTargetConfigFile discriminator to "auth-profile-store" and
corrects the operator-facing text, the migrate plan target, and the docs that
described the file as a live target. Genuine legacy-filename uses in doctor,
the security fixer, and migration fixtures are unchanged.

Also deletes resolveSecretPlanTargetByPath and ResolvedSecretPlanTarget from
the plugin SDK. They have no callers in core, plugins, or tests, and the
symbols are absent from the latest stable tag, so they carry no compatibility
obligation and are removed rather than deprecated. Their inline parameter type
was the only thing putting the retired filename on the public SDK surface.

* improve(wizard): warn about device-code phishing

The device-code prompt only warned against sharing the code, and only when an
expiry was known. Device-code phishing works the other way around: the attacker
starts the login and gets the victim to enter the attacker's code. Codes
delivered over a chat channel are the risky case and carry no expiry hint, so
the warning is now unconditional and covers received codes, matching the Codex
CLI prompt.

Also documents the Codex auth handoff: a subscription profile is installed as
in-memory external auth rather than persisted, and token refresh is inverted
so the refresh token stays in OpenClaw's store.

* fix(test): make transcript read-failure injection order-independent

server.sessions.compaction-read-errors.test.ts injected its failures with
mockRejectedValueOnce, which fails the NEXT call to loadTranscriptEvents
globally. Under --isolate=false a shard shares one worker, so any sibling
transcript read could consume the one-shot rejection before the compaction RPC
issued its own; compaction then ran against the real reader and returned ok,
failing three assertions. This shard was already red on main; a prior repair
fixed the mock's initialization order but left the call-order dependency.

Key the injection on the seeded sessionId instead, so unrelated readers cannot
consume it and the re-read case counts only its own session's reads.

Also updates two expectations invalidated by this branch: the duplicate-agentDir
remediation text, and the plugin SDK export ratchet, shrunk by the two retired
secret-plan exports.
