Description
In some case, when using the environment variable (ie. with CAS), a specific logout url is required to actually logout of nextcloud.
Allowing the admin to optionally set a custom logout url would actually allow a complete implementation of some SSO like CAS. Indeed, until this is possible, users won't be able to logout not until their CAS session actually expires (or until the user closes the browser) which is dangerous.
