feat(middleware): store user access tokens in request context

Extend auth middleware to preserve user access tokens:
- Add UserAccessToken context key
- Store tokens in both RequireAuth and OptionalAuth flows
- Add GetUserAccessToken() helper function
- Add comprehensive test coverage for token extraction

This enables downstream handlers and services to use the user's
actual access token when performing operations on their behalf,
ensuring proper authorization when writing to user PDS repositories.

Critical for user-scoped operations like subscribe/unsubscribe where
we must authenticate as the user, not the instance.
