OAuth browser launch URI validation and shell-safe spawning

What Changed

Hardened OAuth verification URI handling by adding URI parsing validation to reject non-HTTP(S) protocols before browser launch, and replaced shell exec() with process spawn() to prevent command injection from attacker-controlled URLs.

Operator Implication

Eliminates command injection risk in OAuth flows where malicious OAuth servers could inject shell commands like ‘$(id>/tmp/pwned)’ via verification URIs. Uses process spawning without shell interpretation.
