Add passthrough_authorization_parameters support to OIDC configuration (#18232)
# Add passthrough_authorization_parameters support to OIDC configuration

This PR adds `the passthrough_authorization_parameters` option to OIDC
configuration, allowing specific query parameters (like `login_hint`) to
be passed from the redirect endpoint to the authorization grant URL.

This enables clients to provide additional context to identity providers
during authentication flows.
