Register and check in an event walk-in
Requires events_checkin or events_manage and enabled check-in mode. Creates one legacy ticket registration with offline payment and no donor creation, then checks its attendee in with walk_in source. Ticket availability and event capacity are enforced. Reuse the same idempotency key to avoid another registration; repeated admission creates a duplicate check-in log.
