Document the public-paths option that makes browser-based oc login work through Capsule Proxy on hosted control planes (HyperShift), where each hosted cluster runs its own OAuth server with its own root CA. Soften the RFE-7592 limitation note now that the web login flow works against the proxy. Signed-off-by: Thomas van Vugt <thomas.vugt@rvig.nl>

Adds a section on
oc login --webthrough Capsule Proxy to the OpenShift setup page, focused on hosted control planes (HyperShift), where each hosted cluster runs its own OAuth server with its own root CA.oc login --webfetches/.well-known/oauth-authorization-serverfrom the API endpoint before any credentials exist; Capsule Proxy rejects unauthenticated requests by default, so the login aborts withunsupported protocol scheme "". The--public-pathsoption added in projectcapsule/capsule-proxy#1098 (released in v0.14.1) proxies such paths to the upstream API server without authentication and fixes this.Also softens the RFE-7592 limitation note: with public paths configured, browser-based login works against the proxy directly and the copied console command no longer needs the
--serverworkaround.Validated against a HyperShift-hosted cluster: anonymous discovery returns the cluster OAuth metadata, authenticated traffic is unaffected, and trusted-source restrictions still apply to public paths.
