Description

ktor supports various kinds or oauth2 backends. In order to support those we would need to be able to configure the backend to use with client secret etc.

We also need to abstract away getting the user info in the servers Auth.kt which right now calls GitHub API directly to get the the user info.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Research how to abstract current GitHub OAuth logic in Auth.kt to support multiple OAuth backends, using Ktor's OAuth support for configuration.
