Marc-André Bombeck 75eb0637e6 feat(strava): add per-user BYO-OAuth workout source + Garmin indirect-path docs
Add Strava as a per-user BYO-OAuth workout source, mirroring the shipped
WHOOP/Oura/Polar pattern. Strava caps every new app at single-player mode, so
each self-hoster registers their own app and pastes the client id/secret into
Settings (falling back to a shared env app). Strava is a workout source only —
it exposes no daily metrics and no training-depth analytics are derived.

- Schema (migration 0233): per-user encrypted client id/secret + access/refresh
  tokens, plaintext athlete id, incremental cursor, and backfill marker on
  `User`; `STRAVA` added to `MeasurementSource`.
- Token model follows Oura's reactive-refresh-on-401 with a compare-and-set on
  the stored refresh ciphertext, because Strava rotates its refresh token on
  every refresh.
- Client over safeFetch: authorization-code + refresh, activity list + budget-
  aware per-activity detail (for calories/HR), honouring the 200/15min cap; each
  activity maps to one `Workout` row. Activity name/description stay in metadata
  as data, never surfaced or interpolated.
- Dedup reuses the existing source-agnostic two-layer picker: `STRAVA` slots
  into the workout ladder below the device-native wearables and above
  MANUAL/IMPORT, so an Apple-Watch + Strava twin collapses to one canonical row.
- Poll-cohort hourly sync (:17) + self-converging boot backfill, wired into the
  integration-sync registrar. Webhook deferred.
- OAuth routes (connect/callback/credentials/disconnect/status/test) with signed
  state, cross-account re-auth rejection, and a surgical `www.strava.com`
  connect-src gated to the Strava surfaces.
- Settings card + consolidated status envelope entry; env + compose whitelist;
  i18n across all six locales.
- Garmin: no direct connector is possible (business-partner-only). Add
  docs/integrations/garmin.md documenting the Apple Health / Google Health
  Connect path and Garmin's withheld proprietary scores, cross-linked from both
  platform docs, plus a non-connector info note in the Connections panel.

Regenerate docs/api/openapi.yaml for the new `STRAVA` MeasurementSource value.

# Garmin (via Apple Health or Google Health Connect)
**There is no direct Garmin connector for a self-hosted HealthLog instance, and
there cannot be one.** Garmin's data-sharing program is business-partner-only:
it is approval-gated, requires a public callback endpoint, and is not the
"register your own app, paste a key" model the wearable integrations here rely
on. So instead of a broken half-integration, HealthLog reads Garmin data the
honest way — through the phone health platform your Garmin already feeds.
## The path that works
```
Garmin device → Garmin Connect → Apple Health (iOS) ─┐
→ Google Health Connect ├─→ HealthLog
(Android) ─┘
```
- **iOS:** Garmin Connect writes to Apple Health automatically. Import it with
the existing [Apple Health](./apple-health.md) path (the `export.zip` upload or
the native client's background sync).
- **Android:** since Garmin Connect 5.14.1 (July 2025) the app writes to **Google
Health Connect**. Connect HealthLog through the existing
[Google Health](./google-health.md) integration.
No extra code, no Garmin developer account, no approval queue — if your Garmin
already syncs to your phone's health platform, HealthLog already reads it.
## What comes through
Everything Garmin shares with Apple Health / Health Connect flows in: steps,
heart rate (including beat-to-beat variability), sleep stages (REM / deep /
light), calories (active and total), distance, weight and body composition,
cadence, and — partially — blood-oxygen saturation.
## What Garmin withholds
These are Garmin's **proprietary** scores. Garmin does **not** share them with
Apple Health or Health Connect, so no self-hosted integration — and no amount of
configuration — can obtain them. They are only available inside Garmin Connect
itself:
- Body Battery
- HRV Status
- VO₂ max
- Training Load and Training Effect
- Recovery Time
- Intensity Minutes
- Stress score
- Running dynamics
If you rely on those specific numbers, keep the Garmin Connect app for them;
everything else lands in HealthLog through the platform path above.
