This change addresses an issue where running the `factory_bot` generator could result in a `factory_bot [not found]` error. The problem occurred due to missing generator definitions and template files. With this update, the authentication generator is properly defined and includes the necessary templates, ensuring that the `users.rb` factory file is generated regardless of whether the project is using RSpec (`spec/factories`) or Minitest (`test/factories`). This guarantees consistent behavior and avoids generator errors in environments without a `spec` directory. Previously, projects without a `spec` directory or with incomplete generator/template setup would fail when invoking `factory_bot` generators, making it impossible to scaffold the necessary factory files automatically. - Added the missing `factory_bot:authentication` generator definition. - Included `users.rb` template under `templates` directory. - Implemented logic to detect the test framework and place the generated factory file in the correct directory (`spec/factories` or `test/factories`). - Ensured generator runs successfully regardless of the presence of a `spec` directory.

I couldn't push to #540, so I'm opening a new PR with the original commit and a new one.
