use.

must be an exact match as the one passed into the auth code request
If the pre-registered redirect_uri is http://foo.com/authed
an authorization code request's redirect_uri may be
http://foo.com/authed/bar

The redirect_uri parameter should at least be required if the authz
server sent the authorization code to a redirect_uri passed in by the
client into the authorization request.
