lukaszraczylo 78b6f193b3 fix(security): allow loopback hosts for loopback providerURL (#154)
Issue #154: a providerURL that points at a localhost IdP caused an
infinite redirect loop. validateHost rejected loopback hosts
unconditionally, so buildAuthURL returned an empty string.

Derive allowLoopbackHosts from a loopback providerURL at construction
time. Discovery validation already used this derivation, so the two
validation layers now agree. This adds no new config surface.

Cloud metadata hosts (169.254.169.254, metadata.google.internal),
link-local, and unspecified addresses stay blocked unconditionally.
Non-loopback providers keep identical behaviour.

Add issue154_regression_test.go: 8 tests pin the new allowance, the
default block, and the security envelope.
