Enhancing Dex with 2FA adds an additional layer of security, making unauthorized access significantly more difficult. This is particularly valuable for connectors like LDAP and local connectors that do not inherently support 2FA. By implementing 2FA, we align Dex with industry best practices for identity management, meet higher security compliance requirements, and ensure better protection for user data, thereby building greater trust with our users. The 2FA data is securely stored within the `OfflineSessions` object and extends support to all configured connectors. Signed-off-by: m.nabokikh <[email protected]>

I'm not a maintainer nor a reviewer so I'm not sure this is the best place to ask this, but would it be possible to display the "textual" code below the QR code? This is useful when you can't scan the QR code, for example when your TOTP application is directly on your computer. (Edit: typo) |

Do we know if we are going to see this merge in the near future ? This would be a great feature to see deployed. As more and more security requirement ask for 2FA on auth provider. |

@sambonbonne good addition, thanks! |

@nabokihms Is there a way to fund the work in this PR? |

Overview
This pull request implements two-factor authentication (2FA) in Dex. The 2FA data is securely stored within the
OfflineSessionsobject, enhancing security for connectors that lack built-in 2FA support, such as LDAP and local connectors. Upon first login, users will save their 2FA settings using a QR code, after which they will use the saved 2FA for subsequent logins. Below is an example configuration for enabling 2FA:What this PR does / why we need it
