Subject: [PATCH] improve development authentication setup
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- Replaced manual code commenting with environment variable controlled mock auth
- Added development env vars to VS Code launch.json for automatic mock authentication
- Removed unused LinkedIn provider import
- Authentication now automatically uses mock session when launched via VS Code debug
- Zero security impact on production (env vars only exist during debug sessions)

-   
-   Google auth does not work in development environment
-   - this is a hack to make it work in development environment
-   - it returns a fake session object which is used by the Next-Auth middleware
-
-   Instructions: when in dev environment, uncomment the following code snippet
-   - this will return a fake session object which is used by the Next-Auth middleware
-   - when in production environment, comment the code snippet back
-
-   Note: this is not a secure way to handle authentication, it is only for development purposes
-   - in production environment, the auth should be handled by the Next-Auth middleware
-
-   Code snippet:
-   
-   const session:Session = {
-      user: {
-         id: "109754742613069927799",
