That is not a term of art, so it means whatever RSA thinks it means.

The IdP is a SAML IdP, a SAML SP for proxing, a CAS server, and a few other things, and the technical standards and profiles supported are in https://wiki.shibboleth.net/confluence/display/DEV/Supported+Protocols which is largely still accurate but needs some updating for v4.

It can do literally anything to return a result to the IdP, it's just a function call point. It's mean for testing, and odd scenarios that wouldn't require any UI and so don't need all the overhead of the other methods and extension points. I have no capacity to provide you with free support to address your particular use case beyond that.
