Install and enable the OpenID Connect plugin from https://moodle.org/plugins/auth_oidc

Make sure to choose "Authorization Request" as Login Flow in its settings

Add the Login block to your home page

Observe how the login block only displays the login form, whereas the login page (/login/) also has a link to log in via OpenID Connect

With the patch applied, login block presents the link as well.

Description

Unlike the login page, login block currently does not list any configured external auth methods. This makes it practically useless in cases where external auth (e.g. OpenID) is the main login method.

This patch adds the necessary bits to make the login block great again.
