mod_http_oauth2: Enforce response type encoded in client_id The client promises to only use this response type, so we should hold them to that. This makes it fail earlier if the response type is disabled or the client is trying to use one that it promised not to use. Better than failing after login and consent.

summary: Workaround for Dialback with some servers that violate RFC 6120
...

This module provides a workaround for servers that do not set the `to`
attribute on stream headers, which is required per [RFC6120]:

> ## 4.7.2. to
> 
> For initial stream headers in both client-to-server and
> server-to-server communication, the initiating entity MUST include the
> 'to' attribute and MUST set its value to a domainpart that the
> initiating entity knows or expects the receiving entity to service.

As a side effect of [this issue](https://prosody.im/issues/issue/285),
Prosody 0.10 will be unable to do [Dialback][xep220] with servers that
don't follow this.

# Known servers affected
