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

summary: Workaround for servers doing EXTERNAL without proper stream headers
...

Introduction
============

This module is a workaround for servers that try to do s2s
authentication with certificates and SASL EXTERNAL, but do not send
correct stream headers. Notably Openfire versions since 3.7 or 3.8.
