oAuth 2 Authentication to use Client ID in Tokens for Communication with IDCS

Starting with this update, OAuth 2.0 authentication for EPM Automate and Cloud EPM REST APIs with Oracle Identity Cloud Service (IDCS) uses the client ID as the subject in OAuth tokens.

As a result, user management operations performed in IDCS using EPM Automate commands or REST APIs display the client ID in the Performed By column of the Role Assignment Audit Report. The audit behavior for Basic Authentication is unchanged.
