mod_http_oauth2: Always show early errors to user Before having validated the client_id, communicating an error back to the client via redirect would make this an open redirect, so we may just as well skip past that logic, and especially the warning log message.

summary: OIDC UserInfo profile details from vcard4

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.
