Summary:

The code change in this pull request updates the Accounts Linking Plugin for the Jans Casa application. The key change is the modification of the -Dacr= parameter in the /etc/default/jans-casa file to use the agama_io.jans.casa.authn.acctlinking flow instead of the default flow. This allows the Casa application to leverage the accounts linking functionality provided by the Agama project, which enables users to link their local Jans account with external identity providers like OIDC, OAuth 2.0, and social sites.

From an application security perspective, the introduction of external identity provider integration and the ability to link and unlink accounts introduces additional attack surfaces and security considerations. It is important to ensure that the integration with these providers is properly secured, the attribute mapping process does not introduce any vulnerabilities, and the handling of user passwords and user provisioning includes appropriate security measures to maintain the overall security of the system.
