mod_http_oauth2: Add TODO about disabling password grant
Per recommendation in draft-ietf-oauth-security-topics-23 it should at
the very least be disabled by default.
However since this is used by the Snikket web portal some care needs to
be taken not to break this, unless it's already broken by other changes
to this module.

::: {.alert .alert-warning} This module is an experiment about a more graceful shutdown process. Graceful shutdown has now been implemented in Prosody trunk and will be part 0.12. See [issue #1225](https://issues.prosody.im/1225) for details. ::: Why === When shutting down, a number of sessions, connections and other things are teared down. Due to all these things happening very quickly, sometimes e.g. client unavailable notifications don't make it to all remote contacts because the server-to-server connections are teared down just after. How === This module works by breaking the shutdown process into separate steps with a brief pause between them. It goes something like this 1. Stop accepting new client connections. 2. Close all client connections. 3. Fire event for everything else. 4. Tell `net.server` to quit the main loop. 5. ??? 6. Still here? Kill itself.
