Mitch Francese 3451ec6454 Update Okta Platform SSO guide: add dynamic SCEP challenge option (#41228)
## Summary

- Adds Fleet's dynamic SCEP challenge (Okta CA with a dynamic challenge,
available since Fleet 4.81.0) as the recommended path for Device Access
certificates on macOS 14+
- Preserves static SCEP as a documented legacy option, each with its own
downloadable example profile
- Adds `okta-device-access-scep-dynamic-example.mobileconfig` using
`$FLEET_VAR_NDES_SCEP_PROXY_URL` and `$FLEET_VAR_NDES_SCEP_CHALLENGE`;
existing static example profile unchanged
- Corrects renewal claim: neither static nor dynamic SCEP supports
automatic certificate renewal per Okta's own documentation — both
require profile redeployment before expiration
- Adds Okta documentation links throughout for proper SEO and
cross-reference:
- [Use Okta as a CA for Device
Access](https://help.okta.com/oie/en-us/content/topics/oda/oda-as-scep-okta-ca.htm)
- [Configure Okta as a CA with a dynamic SCEP
challenge](https://help.okta.com/oie/en-us/content/topics/identity-engine/devices/okta-ca-dynamic-scep-macos-jamf.htm)
- [Configure Okta as a CA with a static SCEP
challenge](https://help.okta.com/oie/en-us/content/topics/identity-engine/devices/okta-ca-static-scep-macos-jamf.htm)
- Uses correct Fleet UI path and CA type name verified against
`helpers.tsx` and the 4.81.0 release article
- Uses Okta's exact field names (SCEP URL, Challenge URL, Username,
Password) verified from Okta's documentation
- Updates `publishedOn` to reflect the revision date

## Files changed

- `articles/deploying-okta-platform-sso-with-fleet.md` — article update
-
`docs/solutions/macos/configuration-profiles/okta-device-access-scep-dynamic-example.mobileconfig`
— new dynamic SCEP example profile
-
`docs/solutions/macos/configuration-profiles/okta-device-access-scep-example.mobileconfig`
— unchanged (static example)

## Test plan

- [ ] Article renders correctly on fleetdm.com preview
- [ ] Dynamic example profile link resolves:
`okta-device-access-scep-dynamic-example.mobileconfig`
- [ ] Static example profile link resolves:
`okta-device-access-scep-example.mobileconfig`
- [ ] All Okta documentation links resolve
- [ ] Fleet UI path verified: **Settings → Integrations → Certificate
authorities → Add CA → Okta CA or Microsoft Device Enrollment service
(NDES)**
- [ ] Fleet variables `$FLEET_VAR_NDES_SCEP_PROXY_URL` and
`$FLEET_VAR_NDES_SCEP_CHALLENGE` confirmed in Fleet docs
- [ ] Meta tags present with updated `publishedOn` date
- [ ] Style guide compliance verified (active voice, bold UI elements,
no marketing fluff)
