Eleven app configs declared CFG_<APP>_AUTH_PROFILE as a "capability tier for the
WebUI auth tools". Nothing read it — not a shell script, not the frontend, and it
was never emitted into apps.json, so the WebUI could not have acted on it even in
principle.
The job it was meant to do is already done, and done better: authAdapterCanDo
tests `declare -F authAdapter_<app>_<method>`, so what an app can do is derived
from the functions it actually implements. A declared tier is a second source of
truth that can only drift — traefik declared single_password while its adapter
implements setPassword only, and linkding declared nothing at all while shipping
a full multi-user adapter, and neither mismatch had any effect.
Removed the key and its comment from all eleven configs, and replaced the stale
contract note in auth_adapter.sh with what the dispatcher really does.
