fix(browser): parse scim2 responses with non-standard json content-types

[janithjay]

Purpose

Fixes SCIM2 responses (/scim2/Me, /scim2/Schemas, and other SCIM2/organization API calls) not being parsed as JSON in the browser-based SDKs, which broke the UserProfile component (missing fields, or a TypeError: schemas.forEach is not a function crash).

FetchHttpClient (the fetch-based HTTP client that replaced Axios in @asgardeo/browser) only parsed a response body as JSON when the Content-Type header contained the exact substring application/json. Asgardeo's SCIM2 endpoints respond with Content-Type: application/scim+json, which doesn't match, so the response body was returned as raw, unparsed text instead of a JSON object/array. Downstream code then either crashed or silently degraded to a much smaller ID-token-derived profile with no error surfaced to the developer.

This PR updates the content-type check to match application/json exactly, or any subtype ending in +json (e.g. application/scim+json), restoring the lenient behavior Axios used to provide - while still correctly treating non-document JSON formats (e.g. application/geo+json-seq, RFC 8142) as text rather than attempting to .json()-parse them.

Affected packages (fixed by this change): @asgardeo/browser, and everything that depends on it.

Also includes an unrelated CI fix: pnpm-lock.yaml is regenerated (with pnpm@10.33.4, matching CI) to pick up the nx>smol-toml override already present in pnpm-workspace.yaml, resolving an ERR_PNPM_LOCKFILE_CONFIG_MISMATCH failure in the "Install Dependencies" CI step and a high-severity smol-toml audit finding.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Bug Fixes
  • Responses with JSON content types are now parsed as JSON even when the header is not exactly application/json.
  • Support now includes case-insensitive and structured JSON types such as application/problem+json, application/scim+json, and text/json, ensuring these responses are handled correctly instead of being returned as plain text.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The browser HTTP client now detects JSON responses when the content-type header contains “json”, without regard to case. The workspace also pins the nx transitive dependency smol-toml to version 1.7.1.

Changes
