OIDC Configuration is somehow expecting `metadataUrl` to be an object

See original GitHub issue

Expected Behavior

When creating an oidc provider for backstage, the following configuration fails:

auth:
  # see https://backstage.io/docs/auth/ to learn about auth providers
  providers:
    oidc:
      clientId: XXX
      clientSecret: XXX
      metadataUrl: https://<oidc-endpoint>/.well-known/openid-configuration

The Url is confirmed to return the configuration as expected.

Current Behavior

metadataUrl should be treated as a string if I’m reading this PR appropriately #33

Possible Solution

Steps to Reproduce

Pull a new backstage environment with npx
set the configuration with the above auth configuration, even with invalid values it’ll fail out as if they were valid.

Context

I can’t configure the auth backend as expected.

Your Environment
