Lets PlatformAdmins mint Scoped Access Keys bound to a non-human service-account identity instead of their own, for machine-to-machine auth (AIRCORE-986). Service-bound keys are managed by any current PlatformAdmin rather than only their creator, and are listed alongside personal keys for admins while staying hidden from everyone else.

📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughScoped Access Keys now support service-account bindings. The change adds PlatformAdmin authorization, separate owner and subject identities, service-account token metadata, lifecycle management, CLI options, API schemas, and regression coverage.

312-314: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick winUpdate revoke/suspend/unsuspend docs for admin visibility.
The list command docs now state that PlatformAdmins see every service-bound key, not only their own. The revoke, suspend, and unsuspend command docs still say "owned by the currently authenticated user" / "owned by the current user," with no mention of PlatformAdmin capability. If admins can manage (not just list) other principals' service-bound keys, as stated in the PR objective, update these three sections too.

Summary
Adds PlatformAdmin-provisioned, service-bound Scoped Access Keys for machine-to-machine authentication: a key can now be minted for a non-human
service-account:<id>identity instead of the caller's own user identity, distinct from the existing user-bound (self-serve) key path.Related Issue
