auth/oidc: Add support for static JWKS and PEM key verification in OIDC

[johnvox]

WHY

This PR introduces support for static key verification in the OIDC authentication flow, allowing the use of JWKS (JSON Web Key Set) and PEM-encoded certificates/public keys as alternatives to dynamic OIDC provider-based verification.

Enables OIDC token verification in offline or restricted environments.

New Configuration:

• Added AuthOIDCIssuer struct to support static key configuration via:
  • Inline JWKS (JWKS).
  • JWKS file path (JWKSFile).
  • PEM file path (CertificatesFile).

Here Config Snippet used during dev

Hi, NewTokenVerifierFromStatic can call DecodeJWKS with a nil *JSONWebKeySet, which dereferences jwks.Keys and panics, potentially crashing the server at startup when the dynamic provider lookup fails and static config is incomplete.

Severity: action required | Category: reliability

How to fix: Validate IssuerSpec and nil-check

Agent prompt to fix - you can give this to your LLM of choice:

Issue description

NewTokenVerifierFromStatic may call DecodeJWKS(nil) which panics because DecodeJWKS dereferences jwks.Keys without a nil guard.

Issue Context

This is reachable when oidc.NewProvider fails and the code falls back to static verification; if the user didn’t provide issuerSpec.jwksFile, issuerSpec.pemFile, or inline issuerSpec.jwks, the server can crash.

Fix Focus Areas

• pkg/auth/oidc.go[288-311]
• pkg/auth/utils.go[53-59]

Expected fix

• Return a clear error if no static key source is configured (or if IssuerSpec.JWKS == nil).
• Optionally make DecodeJWKS return an error (or empty slice + error) instead of panicking on nil.
• Consider rejecting empty decoded key lists early (before creating verifier).

We noticed a couple of other issues in this PR as well - happy to share if helpful.
