Improve the documentation for custom authenticators by detailing the concept of user identifier normalization. Introduced the `NormalizedUserBadge` example to demonstrate how to simplify and standardize identifiers. Clarified how normalization avoids duplicates and ensures consistent user recognition.

| Similarly, Google normalizes email addresses so that "john.doe", "j.hon.d.oe", | ||
| and "johndoe" all correspond to the same account. | ||
| This involves removing dots and converting the email address to lowercase | ||
| (though normalization specifics depend on your use case). |
