Open Forms extension to use Keycloak access tokens when requesting prefill data from external APIs.

.. contents::

.. section-numbering::

Features
========

* Signal receiver which extracts the Keycloak access token from the session and caches it.
* Pre-request hook that adds a custom `authentication class`_ to the request kwargs.
* Custom authentication class that performs the token exchange with Keycloak and adds the exchanged token to the ``Authorization`` header.


.. note::

   The token exchange has a `standard`_, but Keycloak mentions in its `documentation`_ that they
   "*extended it a little, ignored some of it, and loosely interpreted other parts of the specification*".
