Can some please help to clarify the differences between the Google strategies as it's a little overwhelming for folks not familiar with passport to decide between each.
Specifically:
passport-google-oauth states it's used for authenticating "using OAuth 1.0a and OAuth 2.0", but then there is a strategy for OAuth1.0 and what looks like 2 different strategies for OAuth2.0 (passport-google-oauth20 and passport-google-oauth2). How should one decide whether to use the combined strategy, or between the two 2.0 strategies?
there seems to also be 2 different strategies for OpenID (passport-google-oidc and passport-google).
what's more, the Google tutorial uses oidc but it seems this is the least popular and not the featured strategy.
If someone can clarify that'd be great, and i'd be happy to submit a PR to help clarify the differences if folks think it's appropriate.
