A confidential application in OAuth2 flow is an application which requires
client authentication before retrieving an access token.

According to current implementation we can define confidential applications
just per grant type. ie we can define all applications which use
authorization code grant should be confidential. We do not have the
flexibility to decide whether a specific application should be confidential
or not.

As a solution we can bring this config to UI and have a per application
configuration in UI. If we bring this option to UI level / per application,
we can define confidentiality of an application, but in contrast we will
miss the ability to define whether a specific type of grant should be
confidential or not for a specific application.

In order to cater both application and grant type level confidentiality we
may need to have configurations per grant type. WDYT ?
