refactor(shared,ui): move determineStartingSignInFactor from ui to shared - #10743
Stacked on #10742. Moves determineStartingSignInFactor and the private helpers it uses from packages/ui/src/components/SignIn/utils.ts to @clerk/shared/internal/clerk-js/signInFactors, so ui and Mosaic pick the same starting first factor. Behaviour is unchanged, including sorting the factors array in place.
SignInFactorOne and UserVerificationFactorOne import it from shared. Its tests move with it.
passwordPrefFactorComparator and otpPrefFactorComparator are removed from ui's factorSorting.ts, with their tests; nothing in ui used them after the move. Shared keeps private copies with the same order lists.
@clerk/shared gets a patch changeset so it ships the new module; @clerk/ui is bumped with it as a dependent.
Checklist
pnpm test runs as expected.
pnpm build runs as expected.
(If applicable) JSDoc comments have been added or updated for any package exports

Walkthrough
The shared module adds determineStartingSignInFactor for password- and OTP-preferred selection. Sign-in and user-verification components now import this helper from the shared module. The UI removes its previous selection function and preference comparators. Tests cover shared selection and salutation fallback behavior.
This refactor moves the starting sign-in factor selection into the shared package without changing its behavior. No merge-blocking risk was identified.

Release shared with the new UI import.
If the unrelated shared changeset is released before this PR, the UI release can resolve to a shared version without signInFactors. The external import can then fail to resolve in consumer builds.

Keep the order the server sends for sign-in factors of the same strategy in the alternative methods list of `<SignIn />`. Previously, picking the starting factor reordered the sign-in's factors in place.

Added a @clerk/shared patch changeset (.changeset/shared-sign-in-factor-helpers.md). Checked locally with pnpm changeset version + pnpm pack of ui: shared goes 4.44.1 → 4.44.2 and the packed ui 1.42.5 depends on @clerk/shared: ^4.44.2, the first version with signInFactors.

Seems like the humans are having a chat. I'll hop back into my burrow for now. If you need me again, just tag @coderabbitai in a new comment, and I'll come hopping out!
Both commits start on the password screen and list bravo before alpha in the same order, even though the server sent alpha first. After, the served UI bundle loads the picker from shared.

Approving ahead of time, but the changeset comment is blocking, need to add shared there.
The comments are all pure 🤖-comments, they looked valid but this time I want to be clear I didn't dive deep enough to verify them so take them for what they are.
