Description

Pydantic AnyHttpUrl is too strict for client metadata validation. https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7591#section-2 specifies that all fields are optional. Empty strings are commonly emitted when there's no value.

In addition fields like client_uri are informational and I'm not sure they should even be validated as http. Any URL should technically be supported including non-http URLs. In general, I think the SDK should only apply strict pydantic validation where it affects the security or functioning of the client.

1 validation error for OAuthClientInformationFull

I don't think this is an issue.
