feat(auth0-auth-js): surface mfa_token on chained MFA and iss from verifyLogoutToken

[Piyush-85]

Summary

• Chained MFA step-up (mfa_required from verify): MfaVerifyError.cause.mfa_token and .mfa_requirements are now populated when a second factor is required mid-session. Uses the shared toOAuth2Error normalizer that already handles openid-client's nested cause structure — the same path used by getTokenByRefreshToken and token exchange.
• Backchannel logout iss: verifyLogoutToken now returns iss from the verified payload. Required for resolver-mode server-js implementations that need to route the logout to the correct tenant domain without re-parsing the raw token.

Test plan

• chained mfa_required describe block: 3 tests (basic path, fullResponse path, regression for non-chained failures)
• verifyLogoutToken - should verify the logout token now asserts result.iss
• npm test in packages/auth0-auth-js — 576 pass, 0 fail

Summary by CodeRabbit

• New Features

  • Logout token verification results now include the verified issuer when available.
  • MFA verification errors now preserve refreshed MFA tokens and outstanding MFA requirements from chained challenges.

• Bug Fixes

  • Improved handling of MFA verification errors across standard and full-response flows, while maintaining existing behavior for unrelated authorization errors.

• Tests

  • Added coverage for issuer validation and chained MFA verification failures.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The pull request adds the verified issuer to logout token results. It also preserves mfa_token and mfa_requirements through MFA verification errors in standard and fullResponse paths.

Changes

Logout issuer result

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Logout issuer result and validation packages/auth0-auth-js/src/types.ts, packages/auth0-auth-js/src/auth-client.ts, packages/auth0-auth-js/src/auth-client.spec.ts	VerifyLogoutTokenResult includes optional iss. verifyLogoutToken returns the issuer, and the test verifies it.

MFA error propagation

Layer / File(s)	Summary
MFA error data contract packages/auth0-auth-js/src/mfa/errors.ts	MFA API errors and copied causes preserve mfa_token and mfa_requirements.
MFA verification error handling packages/auth0-auth-js/src/mfa/mfa-client.ts, packages/auth0-auth-js/src/mfa/mfa-client.spec.ts	Both verification paths use toOAuth2Error and propagate the MFA fields. Tests cover chained and ordinary failures.

Make iss required in VerifyLogoutTokenResult.

verifyLogoutToken passes the discovered serverMetadata.issuer to jose's jwtVerify. The issuer option requires iss and validates it against the discovered string issuer. Therefore, a successful result always contains a string iss.

-  iss?: string;
+  iss: string;
