Client ID Metadata Documents support #2977

Description

@bart-westenenk-bex

Describe the feature or problem you’d like to solve

Client ID Metadata Documents are the new standard way to authorize through OAuth, without preregistering a client. My organization disallows using PAT's for our private repositories as they give too much access and they can't control who can make PAT's. Fine grained access tokens are not supported by the MCP, so OAuth is the next step.

Proposed solution

The MCP Server can be used by way more clients than Visual Studio Code and Copilot CLI alone, expanding the usefulness of the MCP server over using the gh CLI.
