fix(auth): address PR #757 review feedback

- Branch the ProvisioningRequiredError message on the elicit result so a
  user who acknowledged the prompt isn't told to call
  nc_auth_provision_access (which would loop an LLM that just confirmed
  via elicitation). Other paths keep the existing instruction.
- Convert present_login_url's f-string logger.warning to lazy %s, matching
  present_provisioning_required and the repo's lazy-logging preference.
- Add a test for NEXTCLOUD_PUBLIC_ISSUER_URL trailing-slash normalization.
- Strengthen the decorator-elicits test: split into the "accepted" and
  "message_only" branches so the error-message change is regression-tested.
