feat(ui): Special handling of offline_access scope in OAuth Consent screen

[jfoshee]

Merged into main in #7627, this is the core-2 PR

Description

This PR introduces special handling for the offline_access OAuth scope on the consent screen.

See discussion.

The offline_access scope is now:

• Excluded from the list of displayed scopes, as it describes access duration rather than specific permissions.
• Indicated by an additional sentence ("You’ll stay signed in until you sign out or revoke access.") appended to the redirect information text when present.

The sandbox environment has been updated to facilitate testing of these changes.
