mod_http_oauth2: Implement RFC 8628 Device Authorization Grant Meant for devices without easy access to a web browser, such as refrigerators and toasters, which definitely need to be running OAuth-enabled XMPP clients! Could be used for CLI tools that might have trouble running a http server needed for the authorization code flow.

This module extracts profile details from the user's [vcard4][XEP-0292]
and provides them in the [UserInfo] endpoint of [mod_http_oauth2] to
clients the user grants authorization.

Whether this is really needed is unclear at this point. When logging in
with an XMPP client, it could fetch the actual vcard4 to retrieve these
details, so the UserInfo details would probably primarily be useful to
other OAuth 2 and OIDC clients.
