Subject: [PATCH] feat(developers): create DeveloperApplication record on
 signup

After registering the user and creating the ticket, call the
SilverDESK developer-program API to create a proper application
record linking the user and ticket. This ensures applications
appear in the /developer-program/applications dashboard.
