Allowing the use of OAuth Providers with duplicate basePath of token endpoint without scope parameter

We request further improvements to idea number APICONN-I-350 (https://ideas.ibm.com/ideas/APICONN-I-350).
Our problem is the same as with APICONN-I-350, but there was a condition where the scope was different even though the basic path
was the same at SBI, which had raised APICONN-I-350. For this reason, you made improvements to find out proper OAuth Provider by
adding scopes when making requests to token endpoints that have the same basic path.
However, RFC6749 does not state that scope parameter are mandatory when making requests to token endpoints. Nor are it also
defined as an Optional item.
Therefore, in the development manual for our fintech clients using our API platform, we did not state that scope parameter was required
when making requests to the token endpoint, and development was carried out accordingly.
In other words, scope parameter was not provided when making requests to the token endpoint.
As a result, when migrating from APIC V5 to APIC V10, there was a need to modify the application to provide scope parameter, and
additional costs were incurred.
The OAuth Provider for API Connect should comply with the RFC. This is because other companies also believe that API Connect
complies with the RFC and have development guidelines based on it.
