fix(analytics): redact single-use path tokens before auto-capture (#3932)

[PierreBrisorgueil]

Problem

Analytics auto-capture recorded endpoint = req.originalUrl.split('?')[0] — stripped the query string but not path params. Routes carrying a single-use secret as a path param (/api/auth/reset/:token, /verify-email/:token, /(auth/)invitations/verify/:token) shipped the raw token to the analytics store, enabling account takeover by anyone with analytics read access.

Fix

New redactPathSecrets helper (co-located with the existing morgan redactUrl). The middleware now prefers the matched route pattern (req.route?.path with mounted prefix) and falls back to redactPathSecrets for unmatched paths — so a token is never captured raw.

Note (behavior change)

Preferring the route pattern applies to all parameterized routes, not only the token ones: endpoint now reports the pattern (/api/tasks/:id) rather than the concrete path for matched routes. This lowers event cardinality (safer) but changes the endpoint property shape for any existing analytics insight keyed on literal paths.

Test

Added path-token redaction unit tests + a real /api/auth/reset/:token integration test; the existing query-string-scrub test still passes.

Closes #3932

Warning

Review limit reached

@PierreBrisorgueil, you've reached your PR review limit, so we couldn't start this review.

Next review available in: 59 minutes

Enable usage-based reviews in Billing to review now. Otherwise, wait until the next included review is available.
You're only billed for reviews past your plan's rate limits ($0.25/file).

How can I continue?

After more reviews become available, a review can be triggered using the @coderabbitai review command as a PR comment. Alternatively, push new commits to this PR.

To avoid repeated limits, reduce automatic review volume by pausing incremental auto-reviews earlier, using label-based review opt-in, excluding WIP or generated PR titles, or requesting reviews manually when the PR is ready. If your team needs uninterrupted high-volume reviews, an organization admin can enable usage-based reviews.

How do review limits work?

CodeRabbit enforces per-developer PR review limits for each organization. Most developers receive the normal plan review availability.

For paid Pro and Pro+ PR reviews, CodeRabbit uses adaptive limits for sustained high-volume activity. When a developer's recent PR review activity reaches the 95th percentile or higher among CodeRabbit users, additional reviews become available more gradually as earlier reviews age out of the rolling window.

Please refer docs for additional details.
