Sketching com.atproto.server.createActorAuth

There was a pretty lengthy discussion about how to go about allowing identities to “act on behalf of” a community identity. It covered a lot of ground and towards the end the lot of us were talking about impersonation, delegation, and actors.

@brittanyellich.com summarized a good chunk under “Proxy Permissions for Community DIDs” and @zicklag.dev wrote about it as well.

This proposal allows an identity to be granted an “actor auth” token to invoke an XRPC method on behalf of the grantor.
