fix: OIDC registration to login flow fails to invoke webhooks

[Roshan931]

Fixes #3627

Root cause

OIDC id_token (native SDK) flows leave flow.Active unset, so method-specific post-login hooks are skipped

Changes

• Set flow.Active = s.ID() before processing the login/registration in the id_token branches of the OIDC strategy (selfservice/strategy/oidc/strategy_login.go and strategy_registration.go), mirroring the existing assignments in the browser callback path, and added a regression test asserting that method-specific post-registration and post-login webhooks fire for id_token submissions.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Bug Fixes

  • OIDC login and registration flows now correctly identify the active strategy before processing ID-token requests.
  • Method-specific post-login and post-registration hooks now run correctly for OIDC ID-token flows.

• Tests

  • Added coverage verifying that OIDC login and registration hooks receive the expected flow data.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

OIDC ID-token login and registration flows now mark the OIDC strategy as active before processing. Tests verify method-specific post-registration and post-login hooks, including registration for an existing identity.

Changes

OIDC hook activation

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Activate OIDC strategy and validate hooks selfservice/strategy/oidc/strategy_login.go, selfservice/strategy/oidc/strategy_registration.go, selfservice/strategy/oidc/strategy_test.go	The login and registration flows set Active to the OIDC strategy before ID-token processing. Tests verify post-registration and post-login hooks, transient payloads, session tokens, and the registration-to-login path.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 5e197

This localized change ensures native OIDC login and registration flows invoke their method-specific webhooks, with regression coverage included; no actionable merge-blocking risk remains after normal checks and review.

In `@selfservice/strategy/oidc/strategy_test.go`:
- Around line 1417-1425: The test around newAPILoginFlow currently covers
separate registration and login but not registration with an existing identity.
Add a second ID-token registration submission using a distinct transient payload
after the initial registration, and assert that
postLoginWebhook.AssertTransientPayload receives that payload to verify the
existing-account registration continues as login.
- Around line 1412-1414: Add defer res.Body.Close() immediately after the
successful request in the test around ioutilx.MustReadAll, ensuring the API
response body is closed while preserving the existing response validation.
