Adds a "Migrating users from password to Google SSO" section to the SSO providers page, based on the actual auth-linking logic in UserService.loginWithOpenIdInner.

Covers:

  • Identity linking by verified primary email preserves the same account (profile, dashboards, charts, spaces, groups, permissions).
  • Requires the user's email to be verified, and AUTH_ENABLE_OIDC_TO_EMAIL_LINKING=true on self-hosted (default on Cloud).
  • Recommended rollout: enable Google alongside passwords → users sign in with Google at least once → then disable password auth.
  • What happens if you enforce SSO before everyone migrates: accounts and content are not lost; users reclaim them by signing in with Google once.
  • Warning that mismatched emails between Lightdash and Google will create a new account instead of linking.
