Add login_hint parameter to OAuth profile configurations in SSO and Forgotten Password #723

Description

The Problem
When making Oauth calls from PWM, the users are being asked twice to enter their username for account lookup purposes. Once from PWM to locate the profile and once from the IDP to process the event. This is not as smooth an experience as it could be.

The Solution
It would be helpful if the value passed to PWM for the profile lookup could be added as a login_hint when making Oauth calls to streamline the process. This would prevent the user from having to enter their username twice as a means to recover their password.

Alternative solutions
Since this would be slotting into a solution that is already in production in our environment and involves several technologies, processes, and teams, I haven't considered other ways to tackle this.

Additional context
My org is evaluating PWM as a replacement for NetIQ SSPR, and the login_hint feature is present in the NetIQ product.
