mod_http_oauth2: Fill in some client metadata defaults Explicit > Implicit Maybe we should actually use these for something as well? :) It's is somewhat an open question of how strictly we should enforce things in the client metadata given that it is somewhat extensible. Especially some of these enum fields which have corresponding IANA registries.

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

Invites are an intermediate way between opening registrations completely and
closing registrations completely.

By letting users invite other users to the server, an administrator exposes
themselves again to the risk of abuse.

To combat that abuse more effectively, this module allows to store (outside
of the user’s information) who created an invite which was used to create the
user’s account.

Details
=======

Add to `modules_enabled`.

Caveats
=======

- The information is not deleted even when the associated user accounts are
  deleted.
- Currently, there is no way to make any use of that information.
