Description

Adds session reverification to MFA setup, matching the legacy MFA screens, which reverify creating a phone, reserving a phone for SMS verification, and creating an authenticator. When Clerk requires verification, the add dialog moves to its existing verify step, as backup codes already do, then continues the setup. Code verification and authenticator code checks are not reverified, as in legacy.

Dismissing the verification closes the dialog without enrolling the method. While a setup request is in flight the dialog now stays open until it responds, as backup codes do, so a verification that arrives late always has somewhere to show; previously starting authenticator setup could be dismissed mid-request.

📝 Walkthrough

MFA phone creation, SMS enrollment, and TOTP creation now use reverification-wrapped operations. The controller selects a visible reverification controller and passes it to the setup view. The view supplies an autofocus ref to the verification step. Tests cover success, cancellation, retry behavior, and pending-request dialog behavior.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Looks good! Left a few small comments, all NITs or questions.

For SMS, I think this also covers when the SMS code is being verified. Previously, you could close during that stage and now you can't, is that intentional?
