OpenID/Oath support

[childers]

Revisiting the question of Oath support, our team has been working on implementing an openID service based on the docs. Previous issues were made by the Drupal/Tripal community, but I'm not sure how many instances there are using this feature. This is working, though there is a key missing component which is connecting the remote account with the local account when the username is not the same. Currently, our development branch is working with gitlab, google and orcID.

I've looked through the code, the docs and the schema, but have not found a way to make this work.

My questions are:

1. Is there something I missed?
2. If not, can we have a conversation about how to add this?
3. Have other groups implemented this, and it just isn't publicized?
4. Is there larger community support for this function?
