fix(*): support email-link session reverification

[joshrowley]

Description

Users whose only configured first factor is an email link can now complete session reverification after the freshness window expires. The original tab waits for the signed link callback, refreshes the active session verification, and resumes the protected action without falling back to an email code.

The callback route preserves the original page URL and shows a clear return-to-original-tab state. This PR adds the resource types, polling flow, prebuilt UI, localized copy, focused resource and UI coverage, and a changeset.
