mod_http_oauth2: Reject loopback URIs as client_uri This really should be a proper website with info, https://localhost is not good enough. Ideally we'd validate that it's got proper DNS and is actually reachable, but triggering HTTP or even DNS lookups seems like it would carry abuse potential that would best to avoid.

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

[PKIX over Secure HTTP (POSH)][rfc7711] describes a method of
securely delegating a domain to a hosting provider, without that hosting
provider needing keys and certificates covering the hosted domain.

# Validating

This module performs POSH validation of other servers. It is *not*
needed to delegate your own domain.

# Delegation

You can generate the JSON delegation file from a certificate by running
`prosodyctl mod_s2s_auth_posh /path/to/example.crt`. This file needs to
be served at `https://example.com/.well-known/posh/xmpp-server.json`.
