Description

Not a bug but request for enhancement : Actually, gitea permits users logged it through openid to have the corresponding user automatically created in gitea :
ENABLE_OPENID_SIGNIN = true
ENABLE_OPENID_SIGNUP = true

But it doens't work if one decides to create a authentication source like oauth2 (so tested with OpenID Connect on my side) : once authenticated, and redirected to gitea, it asks to either :

login with existing (local) user (doesn't exist yet)
create a new user account

Of course I'd like to only allow people authenticated through oauth2 to sign in and so be registered automatically (so DISABLE_REGISTRATION = true)

As discussed in #gitea on freenode, creating a RFE ticket here so that people can discuss it and/or track a potential status change
