Paul Fitzpatrick 54beaede84 (core) revive saml support and test against Auth0
Summary:
SAML support had broken due to SameSite changes in browsers. This
makes it work again, and tests it against Auth0 (now owned by Okta).

Logging in and out works.  The logged out state is confusing, and may
not be complete.  The "Add Account" menu item doesn't work.
But with this, an important part of self-hosting becomes easier.

SAML support works also in grist-core, for site pages, but there
is a glitch on document pages that I'll look into separately.

Test Plan: tested manually
