📄 Description

Fixes: #5775

Unlike the LDAP Backend, the RemoteUserBackend wasnt able to Sync Group memberships form the auth Provider.
This brings it up to parity, as the new Settings give you the Option to setup an automatic Group Sync (and revocation) on each User login.
This has been tested with oauth2-proxy
The old behaviopur of just Syncing Users and then manually managing Groups should be unaffected.
ToDo:

Tests for new Settings
