Support OAuth2 Device Flow

[joeblubaugh]

I'm building an application for a limited-input device: https://developers.google.com/identity/sign-in/devices

I am building most of the "machinery" myself - clients to call the endpoint, sending a request for the ID and Refresh tokens. I'm able to crib a few things from oauth2/google like the refreshing TokenSource and the ConfigFromJSON but have been unable to use NewClient etc.

It would be ideal if some combination of oauth2 and oauth2/google supported this workflow, so the code would be more-reviewed and have an API that fits nicely into the rest of the oauth2 package. It is an OAuth2 standard extension: https://www.oauth.com/oauth2-servers/device-flow/

There is an open pull request that hasn't received a response: #356

Who is the Google maintainer for this package? I know @bradfitz no longer manages it.
