chore: Enable flexible whatsapp onboarding (Manual + Embedded Signup) options (#12344)
We recently introduced the WhatsApp Embedded Signup flow in Chatwoot to
simplify onboarding. However, we discovered two important limitations:
Some customers’ numbers are already linked to an Embedded Signup, which
blocks re-use. Tech providers cannot onboard their own numbers via
Embedded Signup.
As a result, we need to support both Manual and Embedded Signup flows to
cover all scenarios.

### Problem

- Current UI only offers the Embedded Signup option.
- Customers who need to reuse existing numbers (already connected to
WABA) or tech providers testing their own numbers get stuck.
- Manual flow exists but is no longer exposed in the UX

/>


###  Solution

- Design a dual-path UX in the Create WhatsApp Inbox step that:
- Offers Embedded Signup (default/recommended) for new numbers and
businesses.
- Offers Manual Setup for advanced users, existing linked numbers, and
tech providers.
