#' OAuth with authorization code
#'
#' @description
#' Authenticate using the OAuth **authorization code flow**, as defined
#' by `r rfc(6749, 4.1)`.
#'
#' This flow is the most commonly used OAuth flow where the user
#' opens a page in their browser, approves the access, and then returns to R.
#' When possible, it redirects the browser back to a temporary local webserver
#' to capture the authorization code. When this is not possible (e.g., when
#' running on a hosted platform like RStudio Server), provide a custom
#' `redirect_uri` and httr2 will prompt the user to enter the code manually.
#'
#' Learn more about the overall OAuth authentication flow in
#' <https://httr2.r-lib.org/articles/oauth.html>, and more about the motivations
#' behind this flow in
#' <https://stack-auth.com/blog/oauth-from-first-principles>.
#'
#' # Security considerations
#'
#' The authorization code flow is used for both web applications and native
#' applications (which are equivalent to R packages). `r rfc(8252)` spells out
#' important considerations for native apps. Most importantly there's no way
#' for native apps to keep secrets from their users. This means that the
#' server should either not require a `client_secret` (i.e. it should be a
#' public client and not a confidential client) or ensure that possession of
#' the `client_secret` doesn't grant any significant privileges.
#'
#' Only modern APIs from major providers (like Azure and Google) explicitly
#' support native apps. However, in most cases, even for older APIs, possessing
#' the `client_secret` provides limited ability to perform harmful actions.
#' Therefore, our general principle is that it's acceptable to include it in an
#' R package, as long as it's mildly obfuscated to protect against credential
#' scraping attacks (which aim to acquire large numbers of client secrets by
#' scanning public sites like GitHub). The goal is to ensure that obtaining your
#' client credentials is more work than just creating a new client.
#'
#' @export
#' @family OAuth flows
#' @seealso [oauth_flow_auth_code_url()] for the components necessary to
#'   write your own auth code flow, if the API you are wrapping does not adhere
#'   closely to the standard.
#' @inheritParams req_perform
#' @param client An [oauth_client()].
#' @param auth_url Authorization url; you'll need to discover this by reading
#'   the documentation.
#' @param scope Scopes to be requested from the resource owner.
#' @param pkce Use "Proof Key for Code Exchange"? This adds an extra layer of
#'   security and should always be used if supported by the server.
#' @param auth_params A list containing additional parameters passed to
#'   [oauth_flow_auth_code_url()].
#' @param token_params List containing additional parameters passed to the
#'   `token_url`.
#' @param redirect_uri URL to redirect back to after authorization is complete.
#'   Often this must be registered with the API in advance.
#'
#'   httr2 supports three forms of redirect. Firstly, you can use a `localhost`
#'   url (the default), where httr2 will set up a temporary webserver to listen
#'   for the OAuth redirect. In this case, httr2 will automatically append a
#'   random port. If you need to set it to a fixed port because the API requires
#'   it, then specify it with (e.g.) `"http://localhost:1011"`. This technique
#'   works well when you are working on your own computer.
#'
#'   Secondly, you can provide a URL to a website that uses Javascript to
#'   give the user a code to copy and paste back into the R session (see
#'   <https://tidyverse.org/google-callback/> and
#'   <https://github.com/r-lib/gargle/blob/main/inst/pseudo-oob/google-callback/index.html>
#'   for examples). This is less convenient (because it requires more
#'   user interaction) but also works in hosted environments like RStudio
#'   Server.
#'
#'   Finally, hosted platforms might set the `HTTR2_OAUTH_REDIRECT_URL` and
#'   `HTTR2_OAUTH_CODE_SOURCE_URL` environment variables. In this case, httr2
#'   will use `HTTR2_OAUTH_REDIRECT_URL` for redirects by default, and poll the
#'   `HTTR2_OAUTH_CODE_SOURCE_URL` endpoint with the state parameter until it
#'   receives a code in the response (or encounters an error). This delegates
#'   completion of the authorization flow to the hosted platform.
#' @param cache_disk Should the access token be cached on disk? This reduces
#'   the number of times that you need to re-authenticate at the cost of
#'   storing access credentials on disk.
#'
#'   Learn more in <https://httr2.r-lib.org/articles/oauth.html>.
#' @param cache_key If you want to cache multiple tokens per app, use this
#'   key to disambiguate them.
#' @returns `req_oauth_auth_code()` returns a modified HTTP [request] that will
#'   use OAuth; `oauth_flow_auth_code()` returns an [oauth_token].

#' * `oauth_flow_auth_code_listen()` starts a temporary local webserver that

#' * `oauth_flow_auth_code_parse()` parses the query parameters returned from
#'   the server redirect, verifying that the `state` is correct, and returning
#'   the authorisation code.
#' * `oauth_flow_auth_code_pkce()` generates code verifier, method, and challenge
