🎯 What: Fixed a hardcoded webhook secret in account-management/webhooks.mdx and a duplicate variable declaration in the same code snippet.
⚠️ Risk: Hardcoding secrets in documentation can lead to accidental exposure of sensitive credentials if users copy-paste the example without modification. It also sets a poor security example. The duplicate const declaration would cause a SyntaxError at runtime.
🛡️ Solution: Replaced the hardcoded string with process.env.WEBHOOK_SECRET and renamed the second payload declaration to verifiedPayload. Verified the fix with a standalone Node.js test script.

Replaced the hardcoded Svix webhook secret in `account-management/webhooks.mdx` with a reference to `process.env.WEBHOOK_SECRET`. This prevents the exposure of potential production or example secrets and promotes secure coding practices.

Additionally fixed a syntax error in the documentation code snippet where the `payload` variable was being redeclared using `const`.
