### Problem
Multiple customers reported that their WhatsApp numbers remain stuck in
**Pending** in WhatsApp Manager even after successful onboarding.
- Our system triggers a **registration call**
(`/<PHONE_NUMBER_ID>/register`) as soon as the number is OTP verified.
- In many cases, Meta hasn’t finished **display name
review/provisioning**, so the call fails with:
```
code: 100, error_subcode: 2388001
error_user_title: "Cannot Create Certificate"
error_user_msg: "Your display name could not be processed. Please edit
your display name and try again."
```
- This leaves the number stuck in Pending, no messaging can start until
we manually retry registration.
- Some customers have reported being stuck in this state for **7+
days**.
### Root cause
- We only check `code_verification_status = VERIFIED` before attempting
registration.
- We **don’t wait** for display name provisioning (`name_status` /
`platform_type`) to be complete.
- As a result, registration fails prematurely and the number never
transitions out of Pending.
### Solution
#### 1. Health Status Monitoring
- Build a backend service to fetch **real-time health data** from Graph
API:
- `code_verification_status`
- `name_status` / `display_name_status`
- `platform_type`
- `throughput.level`
- `messaging_limit_tier`
- `quality_rating`
- Expose health data via API
(`/api/v1/accounts/:account_id/inboxes/:id/health`).
- Display this in the UI as an **Account Health tab** with clear badges
and direct links to WhatsApp Manager.
#### 2. Smarter Registration Logic
- Update `WebhookSetupService` to include a **dual-condition check**:
- Register if:
1. Phone is **not verified**, OR
2. Phone is **verified but provisioning incomplete** (`platform_type =
NOT_APPLICABLE`, `throughput.level = NOT_APPLICABLE`).
- Skip registration if number is already provisioned.
- Retry registration automatically when stuck.
- Provide a UI banner with complete registration button so customers can
retry without manual support.

This update adds support to the coexistence method to Embedded Whatsapp,
allowing users to add their existing whatsapp business number in order
to use it in both places(chatwoot and whatsapp business) at the same
time.
This update require some changes in the permissions for the Meta App, as
described in the Meta Oficial Docs, I'll leave this listed below:
- **history** — describes past messages the business customer has
sent/received
- **smb_app_state_sync** — describes the business customer's current and
new contacts
- **smb_message_echoes** — describes any new messages the business
customer sends with the WhatsApp Business app after having been
onboarded

## Description
This PR introduces WhatsApp Embedded Signup functionality, enabling
users to connect their WhatsApp Business accounts through Meta's
streamlined OAuth flow without manual webhook configuration. This
significantly improves the user experience by automating the entire
setup process.
**Key Features:**
- Embedded signup flow using Facebook SDK and Meta's OAuth 2.0
- Automatic webhook registration and phone number configuration
- Enhanced provider selection UI with card-based design
- Real-time progress tracking during signup process
- Comprehensive error handling and user feedback
## Required Configuration
The following environment variables must be configured by administrators
before this feature can be used:
Super Admin Configuration (via
super_admin/app_config?config=whatsapp_embedded)
- `WHATSAPP_APP_ID`: The Facebook App ID for WhatsApp Business API
integration
- `WHATSAPP_CONFIGURATION_ID`: The Configuration ID for WhatsApp
Embedded Signup flow (obtained from Meta Developer Portal)
- `WHATSAPP_APP_SECRET`: The App Secret for WhatsApp Embedded Signup
flow (required for token exchange)
## How Has This Been Tested?
#### Backend Tests (RSpec):
- Authentication validation for embedded signup endpoints
- Authorization code validation and error handling
- Missing business parameter validation
- Proper response format for configuration endpoint
- Unauthorized access prevention
#### Manual Test Cases:
- Complete embedded signup flow (happy path)
- Provider selection UI navigation
- Facebook authentication popup handling
- Error scenarios (cancelled auth, invalid business data, API failures)
- Configuration presence/absence behavior
