Add resumable auth login for non-TTY flows

[gonzaloriestra]

WHY are these changes introduced?

Agents running shopify auth login in non-TTY contexts should not block on device-code polling. This builds on #7629 by letting agents start login, hand the URL and code to a user, and resume after authorization.

WHAT is this pull request doing?

• Makes non-TTY shopify auth login start device authorization, print the verification URL and code, stash the device code, and exit with --resume guidance.
• Adds shopify auth login --resume to exchange the stashed device code and store the completed session.
• Refreshes command docs/manifests and adds focused cli-kit and command tests.

Differences in type declarations

We detected differences in the type declarations generated by Typescript for this branch compared to the baseline ('main' branch). Please, review them to ensure they are backward-compatible. Here are some important things to keep in mind:

• Some seemingly private modules might be re-exported through public modules.
• If the branch is behind main you might see odd diffs, rebase main into this branch.
