SCIM User Responses Now Include profileUrl Attribute
GitHub SCIM user responses now include the `profileUrl` attribute, conforming to RFC 7643. This attribute provides the absolute URL of the GitHub account linked to an external identity, simplifying matching SCIM records for identity providers and IT teams. Previously, this required extra lookups or inference, but now the `profileUrl` can be read directly. This is an additive change that does not affect existing integrations, allowing users to adopt it as needed.
