Traccar: can't log in when server uses OpenID auth

[surfingbytes]

The problem

Traccar has to be publicly accessible to be able to set up GPS modules to call it. And therefore, it's best to set up OpenID on it (Authentik for example). But then, this integration doesn't work, as it only allows to use username/password, while it should really support token (https://www.traccar.org/forums/topic/traccar-openid-and-home-assistant/#post-106081).
Configuration fails with "Failed setup, will retry: Error while updating device data: Unauthorized".
Please allow to use token, so this integration can be configured when Traccar uses OpenID.
