mod_http_oauth2: Use more compact IDs
UUIDs are nice but so verbose!
The reduction in entropy for the nonce should be fine since the
timestamp is also counts towards this, and it changes every second
(modulo clock shenanigans), so the chances of someone managing to get
the same client_secret by registering with the same information at the
same time as another entity should be negligible.

::: {.alert .alert-warning} This module is an experiment about a more graceful shutdown process. Graceful shutdown has now been implemented in Prosody trunk and will be part 0.12. See [issue #1225](https://issues.prosody.im/1225) for details. ::: Why === When shutting down, a number of sessions, connections and other things are teared down. Due to all these things happening very quickly, sometimes e.g. client unavailable notifications don't make it to all remote contacts because the server-to-server connections are teared down just after. How === This module works by breaking the shutdown process into separate steps with a brief pause between them. It goes something like this 1. Stop accepting new client connections. 2. Close all client connections. 3. Fire event for everything else. 4. Tell `net.server` to quit the main loop. 5. ??? 6. Still here? Kill itself.
