release(v2.0.2): unify component docs, bump theta-directory/proxy/jump-host (#194)
Unifies the GitHub Pages docs site: the SSO/Proxy/Jump Host pages, their
nav labels, and each component's own README now consistently say Theta
Directory / Theta Proxy / Theta Gateway, drop marketing sections ("Why this
over the alternatives", "Get it", "Related projects") that don't apply to a
suite component, remove every standalone/bare-metal install path, and link
to theta42.github.io/theta-suite/... instead of the old per-repo Pages sites.
Bumps submodules: theta-directory v2.0.2, proxy v2.0.1, jump-host v2.0.1.

## Why this over the alternatives
|
||||
|
||||
Tools like Keycloak, Authentik, Authelia, or Zitadel are OIDC providers, but
|
||||
LDAP is either a paid feature, a federation target you have to run
|
||||
separately, or absent. If your stack already has apps that speak LDAP
|
||||
directly — or you just want one real directory as the source of truth — you
|
||||
end up running *two* identity systems and keeping them in sync.
|
||||
|
||||
SSO Manager bundles the OpenLDAP directory with the OIDC provider, so OIDC
|
||||
apps and LDAP apps read from the same users and groups. The trade-off is
|
||||
scope: it's intentionally small and self-hosted, not an enterprise IAM suite.
|
||||
If you want a lightweight, self-contained identity provider with a real LDAP
|
||||
backend, that's the niche.
