Eric Traut 609f75acec Fix hang on second oauth login attempt (#4568)
This PR fixes a bug that results in a hang in the oauth login flow if a
user logs in, then logs out, then logs in again without first closing
the browser window.

Root cause of problem: We use a local web server for the oauth flow, and
it's implemented using the `tiny_http` rust crate. During the first
login, a socket is created between the browser and the server. The
`tiny_http` library creates worker threads that persist for as long as
this socket remains open. Currently, there's no way to close the
connection on the server side — the library provides no API to do this.
The library also filters all "Connect: close" headers, which makes it
difficult to tell the client browser to close the connection. On the
second login attempt, the browser uses the existing connection rather
than creating a new one. Since that connection is associated with a
server instance that no longer exists, it is effectively ignored.

I considered switching from `tiny_http` to a different web server
library, but that would have been a big change with significant
regression risk. This PR includes a more surgical fix that works around
the limitation of `tiny_http` and sends a "Connect: close" header on the
last "success" page of the oauth flow.
