mod_http_oauth2: Strip unknown extra fields from client registration
We shouldn't sign things we don't understand!
RFC 7591 section-2 states:
> The authorization server MUST ignore any client metadata sent by the
> client that it does not understand (for instance, by silently removing
> unknown metadata from the client's registration record during
> processing).
Prevents grandfathering in of unvalidated data that might become used
later, especially since the 'additionalProperties' schema keyword was
removed in 698fef74ce53

::: {.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.
