Greetings,

I hope this message finds you well. My name is Kyriakidis Dimitrios, and I'm excited to contribute to spring-projects/spring-authorization-server. This request addresses an issue related to NullPointerException handling and logging within the OAuth2 authorization process. Previously, there was a potential risk of encountering NullPointerException when accessing certain attributes during authorization. This issue has been resolved by implementing more robust error handling mechanisms to handle such scenarios gracefully.

Additionally, this merge request includes enhancements to the logging mechanism to provide more detailed information during the authentication process. By improving the logging output, developers and administrators can gain better insights into the flow of authorization requests and responses, facilitating troubleshooting and debugging efforts.

Overall, this merge request aims to improve the reliability and observability of the OAuth2 authorization process by addressing potential NullPointerExceptions and enhancing logging capabilities. These changes contribute to a more robust and transparent authentication experience for users and developers alike.

Thank you for considering my contribution.

Best regards,
Kyriakidis Dimitrios

		OAuth2AuthorizationRequest authorizationRequest = authorization.getAttribute(
				OAuth2AuthorizationRequest.class.getName());
		String codeChallenge = (String) authorizationRequest.getAdditionalParameters()
        				.get(PkceParameterNames.CODE_CHALLENGE);
     Improved error handling with more descriptive error messages.
     Enhanced logging to provide more information during the authentication process.
     Added checks for null authorization request and unsupported code challenge methods.
     Made the code more concise and readable by simplifying conditionals and refactoring repetitive code.
Prior to this commit, error handling and logging in the OAuth2 authorization process could be improved. This commit enhances the error handling to provide slightly more descriptive error messages and improves logging to include additional information during the authentication process.

Changes made:
- Improved error handling to provide slightly more descriptive error messages.
- Enhanced logging to include additional information during the authentication process.

The code previously relied on OAuth2AuthorizationRequest to retrieve the authorization request, which could potentially lead to a 'NullPointerException' if the request was not properly initialized. This commit ensures that the authorization request is retrieved safely.

This commit adds a new method, getClientSecret(), to the
OAuth2ClientAuthenticationToken class. This method allows retrieving
client secrets for confidential clients during client authentication.
Before this commit, there was no method available to directly fetch
the client secret from the OAuth2ClientAuthenticationToken class.

authorizationRequest will never be null since code_verifier is part of the Authorization Request.
