Called by the store plugin (HMAC auth) after the merchant installs the plugin and
the admin has triggered pairing from the console. The plugin supplies its one-time
pairing code plus platform-specific store API credentials scoped to Sarvex's needs.
Sarvex validates the credentials, provisions signing keys, encrypts and persists the
credentials server-side, and marks the connector healthy.

The `store_credentials` payload is platform-specific and optional in the wire
envelope (a deployment where credentials are provisioned out-of-band may omit it),
but live checkout and write-back require credentials to be present.

**Credential boundary:** `store_credentials` carries integration credentials
(REST API keys, webhook secrets) — not payment credentials. Payment credentials
are never handled here; see the payment-credential boundary invariant.
