Feature description

A easy login method where a request is forwarded first to pocket-id and decided (by e.g. cookie) if the request is send to wanted endpoint (and therefore add some HEADER e.g. id, email, name username, groups and maybe also claims)

e.g.
nginx: https://docs.nginx.com/nginx/admin-guide/security-controls/configuring-subrequest-authentication/
traefik: https://doc.traefik.io/traefik/middlewares/http/forwardauth/
