feat: implement Safaricom M-PESA Daraja gateway with STK Push sandbox tests #91

Description

@teesofttech

Why

M-PESA is a major East African mobile-money rail not covered by the current SDK. Safaricom Daraja 3.0 provides APIs and a sandbox simulation environment.

Official portal: https://developer.safaricom.co.ke/

Scope

  • Start with Kenya STK Push and query/status callbacks.
  • Model phone/MSISDN validation, shortcode, passkey, OAuth token caching, and callback URLs.
  • Treat the asynchronous callback lifecycle explicitly.
  • Confirm reversal/refund capabilities and model unsupported operations honestly.
  • Add raw callback validation/authentication according to current Daraja guidance.

Acceptance criteria

  • Sandbox STK Push request and status/query flow pass with documented test credentials.
  • Callback fixtures cover success, cancel, insufficient funds, timeout, duplicate, and malformed payload.
  • Tokens are cached safely and refreshed under concurrency.
  • Phone numbers and KES amounts are validated correctly.
  • Logs redact MSISDN and credentials.
  • Capability matrix documents Kenya-only scope of the first release.
