Normally hooks can achieve the most of it, but there are extra work required such as making sure the endpoint was a successful request and whatnot. Extra work for our end users. Additionally we believe this is a fair ask, so I've started work on this.

This PR adds event options to the admin plugin to capture common events: impersonate start, impersonate end, ban user, unban user, user create, remove user.

Useful for:

  • cleanups
  • audit logging
  • notifications / email sending

Summary by cubic

Adds event callbacks to the admin plugin so apps can react to impersonation, bans, and user management. Addresses Linear ENG-546 by providing post-success impersonation events and reducing hook boilerplate.

  • New Features
    • New admin.events: impersonateStart, impersonateEnd, ban, unban, userCreate, userRemove.
    • Event payloads include adminSession and the target user; adminSession may be null for server-initiated calls, while ban/unban always include a session.
    • Ban/unban refetch the user to pass updated fields (banned, banReason, banExpires).
    • Added documentation with examples and comprehensive tests.
    • Event errors do not block admin operations.

Written for commit 143c0044bc. Summary will update on new commits.
