Redmine authentication through OAuth.

Redmine OAuth plugin 2.1.3

This plugin is used to authenticate in Redmine through an OAuth provider.

The user is identified by the email registered by the OAuth provider. The email must correspond with an email registered in Redmine. If such an email is not found, the user is ofered with registration to Redmine depending on the Redmine's setting Self-registration.

Inspired by Gucin's plugin https://github.com/Gucin/redmine_omniauth_azure.

Prior accessing IMAP via OAuth, it is necessary to grant flow to authenticate IMAP connections.

Here is a procedure how to do that in Azure:
