Description

OpenID Connect Discovery for client was introduced in 5.1 and was documented for spring-webflux, however, there is no documentation for the Servlet support.

We need to document the support on the Servlet side. It should be very similar to what is documented on the spring-webflux side.

Research direction

Start with the linked Spring WebFlux OpenID Connect Discovery documentation, then locate the corresponding Servlet OAuth2 login documentation in Spring Security. Add the equivalent Servlet support description, and consider the work done when users can find the discovery configuration documented alongside the other Servlet client guidance.
