Add updated-from entity snapshot to updated webhooks
Update webhook events now carry a top-level "updatedFrom" field alongside "data", containing a full snapshot of the entity as it was before the update. This lets subscribers diff old vs new state (for example the prior membership role on user:updated) without tracking prior state themselves. It is a complete snapshot with the same shape as "data", not a partial diff, so consumers select whatever fields they need. The field is omitted for non-update events. The webhook_data table gains a nullable updated_from JSONB column, and webhook.InsertUpdateData enqueues both snapshots; InsertData delegates to it with a nil updatedFrom so non-update callers are unaffected. Each *:updated emission site snapshots the entity right after load, before mutation: obligation, third-party, user (org and SCIM flows), document, document-version, and document-version-approval-quorum. The document emit helpers gained an optional updatedFrom argument threaded through to the payload. For document-version-approval-quorum:updated the snapshot requires an extra query, so it is now gated behind the same subscription-existence check the emitter uses: when no subscriber is configured the load is skipped entirely rather than running (and potentially failing the approval) for an event nobody receives. Add integration tests (against a real Postgres, skipped when none is reachable) covering the updated_from round-trip, the SQL NULL behavior when no snapshot is provided, and the no-op when no subscription matches, plus a unit test asserting updatedFrom is omitted from the payload when absent. Document the new field in the probod and n8n changelogs and the n8n README. Signed-off-by: Sacha Al Himdani <sacha@probo.com>

### Update events carry the previous state
|
||||
|
||||
For `*:updated` events, the payload includes an `updatedFrom` object next to `data`, holding a full snapshot of the entity as it was before the update. This lets a workflow react to what actually changed — for example, only notify when a user's role changes:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Condition:** `{{ $json.data.membership.role !== $json.updatedFrom.membership.role }}`
|
||||
- **Text:** `Role changed from {{ $json.updatedFrom.membership.role }} to {{ $json.data.membership.role }}`
|
||||
|
||||
`updatedFrom` is present only on update events; it is absent for created, deleted, and other lifecycle events.
