Add mwoauth to shared pywikibot on Toolforge
Open, Needs TriagePublic

Description

Please add the mwoauth module to the shared pywikibot installation on Toolforge in order to allow bots to log in using oauth without the need to install this pywikibot-related module to a local venv.

(Some background: I use a separate venv for each bot task in order to separate concerns, so I would have plenty of venvs to update if this request would be declined.)

Somewhat related requests have been made in T134600 and T143534, but the landscape has change a lot since then. There is some demand for oauth out-of-the-box for pywikibot, however.
